|Somewhere After Him|18+
Xolani Isabella Monet Blackwood spent years believing she knew what love was.
Until the person who promised to protect her became the person she needed protection from.
After walking away from a relationship that destroyed pieces of who she used to be, Xolani is determined to rebuild herself. A new city, a new college, a track scholarship, and a future she once thought she'd never have become her chance to finally breathe again.
But starting over isn't as simple as leaving the past behind.
While trying to discover who she is beyond the pain, Xolani finds herself drawn into a world filled with hidden secrets, unanswered questions about her parents' deaths, and a man who sees her as more than what she survived.
He doesn't save her. He simply reminds her that she was never truly broken.
But when the past she escaped begins to resurface, Xolani must decide whether she will let it define her-or finally write her own story.
Because sometimes the greatest love story begins somewhere after him.
