What Remains - Paperback

by Avery Wilder (Author)

She thought her heart could heal. She never expected it would have to survive.

When Alex's first love, Henry, moved to London ten years ago, she never imagined she'd fall for someone new-let alone someone like Nick. A trusted cop and a close friend, Nick seemed perfect... until the cracks began to show.

Now a dedicated nurse juggling compassion and exhaustion, Alex hides bruises no one sees and secrets no one suspects. With nowhere to turn, she finds strength in the unlikeliest place-learning self-defense from her quiet, loyal friend Ronnie. As her world unravels, she must decide if she has the courage to reclaim her freedom.

Across the ocean, Henry hasn't stopped searching for a missing mother in one of the NCA's most haunting cold cases. Obsessed with justice and haunted by regret, he's never truly moved on from the girl he left behind.

As fate pulls them both toward reckoning, questions remain: Will Alex escape before it's too late? Can Henry finally let go of the past-or will the past find its way back to him?

Gripping, emotional, and deeply human, What Remains is a story of lost love, survival, and the strength it takes to start over
