At twenty-five, Adrian Villanueva carries a title no one ever imagines having so young-widower. To everyone else, Eli Navarro was just another young man whose life ended too soon. To Adrian, he was home. He was the love that turned ordinary days into unforgettable memories, the husband no one knew existed, and the person he promised to spend forever with. For years, they built a quiet life together, keeping their relationship hidden from Eli's family while finding acceptance in Adrian's. They dreamed of growing old side by side, never realizing that forever could end in a single day. When Eli suddenly dies, Adrian is left with more than grief. He is left carrying a love he cannot publicly mourn, standing at the funeral as nothing more than "Eli's best friend" to the people who should have known him best. Until Better Days is a story about first love, hidden promises, unbearable loss, and the quiet courage it takes to keep living after the person you loved most is gone. Because some love stories don't end when someone dies-they simply learn to live in silence.
