Sometimes, what seems like a beginning is actually an ending – and that ending becomes the start of what you really needed all along.
Central Avenue Publishing
The love story starts in the usual way: a whirlwind of confessions, late night conversations, and promises that seem sturdy. The years pass by, and novelty is replaced by a comforting routine – one that’s difficult to walk away from when things take a toxic turn.
Ultimately, this is a collection about bravery and evolution. It takes courage to leave behind the familiar. To question all the things that once seemed undeniably true. To learn to stand on your own and, in doing so, become who you were really meant to be.
Endings can be the best beginnings… once you realize the power you have to create them.
