Blurb:
They say everything happens for a reason- that there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. For the longest time I didn't think that was true. I had stumbled around in the dark for so many years that I didn't think I would ever find the way out. But when I finally did, it came in the most unexpected way.
Miles Hollins had been my brother's best friend for a long as I could remember. We didn't like each other much growing up. Or rather, we couldn't stand each other. But after ten years of being gone, a lot has changed.
He wasn't the same boy I remembered. I wasn't the same girl either. So much had happened.
I moved away and got married.
Miles joined the military.
We both returned home broken in our own way.
I struggled to find my place in my new life. Miles struggled just to get through the day. But together we slowly began to heal. I quieted his demons and he gave me a sense of belonging. For a while that was enough.
But this is real life, and in real life nothing stays perfect forever. In real life not every story ends with a happily ever after. Sometimes the scars we carry are just too deep.
I promised him I would fight.
He promised me I would lose.
I'll do everything in my power to prove him wrong. Because it's when you find the one thing you can't live without, that you truly find yourself.
All That We Are is a standalone contemporary romance.
