博客來Emma thought escaping her abusive ex meant freedom. She didn’t expect his suicide to become her prison.
Two years later, Emma still can’t sleep through the night. The panic attacks. The nightmares. The suffocating question: Was I responsible for his death? When her best friend signs her up for a five-hundred-mile hike on the Appalachian Trail, Emma agrees because maybe physical pain will be easier to carry than emotional wreckage.
Then she meets Noah.
He’s patient where Scott was volatile, kind where Scott was cruel. As the miles stretch on and Emma’s defenses crack, she finds herself wanting something she swore she’d never risk again: trust. But Emma knows how this story ends. It always starts with kindness.
When Emma finally tells Noah the truth about her past, she expects him to see her as broken. Instead, he asks if he can kiss her.
But when Emma slips on an exposed ridge and finds herself dangling above the ground with only Noah’s rope keeping her alive, she faces an impossible choice: trust him to pull her back up, or let fear win forever.
Find out if Emma can climb back from the edge in this powerful story about trauma, resilience, and choosing love after loss.
