The What We Carry Series
Two novels about the things we bury, and the weight they leave behind.
The Books
A two-book collection about the quiet damage families carry, and the moment it finally surfaces.
A gripping psychological thriller with a romantic foundation — and just enough bite to keep you guessing.
When single mom Theressa Blake meets Preston Caldwell, a widowed father with a quiet son and a dazzling smile, she finally starts to believe in second chances. Beneath their picture-perfect life lies a darkness no one dares to believe.
Jayce claims he doesn't remember anything.
But memory can lie.
Book Two in the What We Carry series — for readers who love emotional romance, complicated characters, unexpected connections, family secrets, and What He Doesn't Remember.
Leah is at a loss about who she's supposed to become. One reckless mistake changes that — and suddenly, everything she believed about her life is called into question.
A quick escape gives Leah space to breathe, to make choices for herself, and to discover a version of herself she hadn't met. Just when she begins to believe her life might actually be stabilizing, something threatens that fragile sense of normal — pulling her back into a world of secrets, guilt, and questions she can't ignore.
Because leaving doesn't mean you've escaped.
And sometimes, the things left unsaid are the things that change everything.

The Author
Kali writes psychological thrillers and mystery novels with spicy romance at their core. Her stories are packed with suspense, complicated characters, relatable chaos, and just enough humour to keep things from getting too dark.
When she’s not busy putting fictional people through emotional chaos, she’s usually off doing something crafty, digging around in the garden, planning a trip, or making camping memories with her family.
She believes coffee is a food group, sweatpants are appropriate for far more occasions than society would like to admit—she considers both essential writing equipment. Because sometimes the best stories happen when you’re avoiding everything you were supposed to be doing by wondering how your characters got themselves into this mess.
Her best ideas have a strange habit of showing up mid shower, usually when there’s nowhere to write them down.
