Ryan Reeves wasn't always so cunning and cold, he had a heart; a family...so what changed him??
This book describes Ryan's life before going into care and long before he reaches the security of Ashdene Ridge. It aims to capture Ryan's struggles as he adapts to multiple foster homes, and care home placements.
This is my adaptation of The Dumping Ground's character Ryan Reeves and his childhood following my first book 'A Storm in Mind'.

What If I Was Nothing?
They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.Complete
