"On the last day of us, I boarded a broken plane to Alaska. The Californian sunshine became too bright; it filtered through my body like a pincushion crystal left with the damage of your sharp words."

*COMPLETED* My head bowed in a heavy mannor, not in respect, but in trepidation. I discern his unwavering gaze over my ill silhouette. "Look at me." I opened my eyes, though it made no difference. Black is still black, all I am left with are my four senses. He will kill me if I don't look. He will kill me if I do. He will look into my sightless eyes and see my futile existence isn't worth living. He will kill me, and he will be doing the pack a justice by it. He growls a low, throaty snarl to warn me about disobeying an alpha. There will be consequences, we both know that. His lingering growls let me know he is not going to allow me to contravene his word. I steadily inch my head upwards, visibly shaking everywhere else. Maybe he won't notice my depthless eyes from across the gazebo. My life depends on it. "You're blind." ~ Monet was born into a particularly prestigious area of her wolf pack, to parents of extremely high standards. Her legacy is to become the packs next healer, but when she was born completely devoid of melanin, all her mated parents saw was a disappointment. Being born an albino wolf pup meant a lot for Monet, but it mostly meant her condition had taken her eyesight along with it. What happens when Monet meets the Alpha of a neighboring pack? Will he accept her for what she is? ~CONTENT WARNING~ This book contains depictions of physical abuse, foul language, and upsetting scenary.

It is meant to shine light on those who differ from the majority; conquering, and overcoming those who lessen them for what makes them special. ~ Word count at completion date: 33,915 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Haunted by the ghosts of wars she never believed in, former Marine Milk has retreated from the world to live in the icy solitude of Alaska. With only her loyal dog Noah for company, she spends her days patrolling the snow-covered wilderness, hunting to stay sharp, and venturing into the village once a week for a reminder of human connection. It's safer this way-no one to protect, no one to lose. But when she hears a faint cry for help echoing across the desolate expanse, her carefully constructed world begins to crack. Milk discovers a young woman lying injured at the bottom of a ravine. The girl's presence is as inexplicable as it is unsettling-thinly dressed for the brutal cold, her body marked with bruises and scars, and her dark, frightened eyes revealing a story she won't tell. Unable to leave the girl to fend for herself, Milk takes her back to the cabin she's called home for years. Slowly, carefully, Milk begins to care for her injuries and tries to earn her trust. The girl doesn't speak-not her name, not the truth of where she came from or what she's running from-but Milk senses in her a kindred spirit, someone equally wounded by the past. What begins as an act of survival turns into something deeper, something neither of them expected-a fragile, aching kind of love that feels as dangerous as it does necessary. In saving Love, Milk begins to save herself, rediscovering the pieces of her humanity she thought she'd lost forever. Set against the stark beauty of Alaska, Saved by Love is a story of survival, healing, and the redemptive power of connection. It's a reminder that even in the most frozen of landscapes, love can find a way to bloom.

Rejection. Betrayal. Heartbreak. Grief. Unfortunately, we've all had a swallow, some more than others, of this bitter brew. This is just a sliver of my chapter that is a part of this world's grand narrative; it's about one person's toe dipping into the brokenness of the Earth, and the ripples, waves, tsunamis it created in her life. A couple of months ago, while consoling a friend grieving the loss of a relationship, he asked me a question no one had ever asked me before. A very vulnerable and powerful question. I had been sharing some of my own similar experiences with him when he messaged me that life changing question, "And, what did you see at the top of the mountain?" While his words were just letters on a screen, I could see the hunger in his eyes, hear the desperation in his voice, sense the overwhelming thirst of a person climbing up an incredibly steep and treacherous mountain. What did I see at the top of the mountain? This book is my answer to this question. Let's go for a hike.
