She loved him loudly. He loved her quietly-only when it was convenient. Leah believed two years of love meant security, a future, a place she could finally call hers. Yet, every time it mattered, he chose someone else. A best friend. A familiar comfort. A silence that hurts more than betrayal. This is a story about emotional neglect, unspoken loyalties, and the slow realization that love without priority is a form of loss. It asks a difficult question: How long can you stay where you are never fully chosen?

After enduring another year of her twin brothers basking in their father's attention, Rae sets out to find the truth for herself. Little does she know, she's about to uncover the life her mother, Renee, lived before settling down-a life Rae never dared to imagine. After traveling hundreds of miles from home, Rae arrives at Iron Angels MC territory. There, she meets the President, hoping for the chance to ask him a few burning questions. During her stay, she stands out more than she expects, her quiet presence drawing the attention of more than one biker-but that isn't why she's here. With more questions and emotions rising to the surface, Rae begins to realize that while she misses her mother, the woman has a lot to answer for-if only Renee were here to face the mess she's left behind. But through it all, nothing compares to the time Rae has lost-now stepping into the life she should have been born into.
