Part Of Her, Whole Of My Heart
18 parts Ongoing MatureAfter nearly six years of service in the U.S. Army, Alex returns home, a woman hardened by war and haunted by the echoes of a past she never truly left behind. Chief among those ghosts is Elianna, the woman she once loved, who vanished without warning, leaving Alex with nothing but silence, doubts, and heartbreak.
Over the years, Alex tried to move on, convincing herself that Elianna had found someone else. When Alex learns that Elianna has a son, and it seems to confirm her worst fears: betrayal, abandonment, and a future that never included her.
But Elianna's life has been far from easy. Alone, raising a child she never thought she'd have, she's spent the past six years fighting to build a safe, if quiet, world for her son, a world untouched by the confusion and pain of her past.
Now Alex's unexpected return throws everything off balance. Old wounds resurface. New questions emerge. And in the middle of it all stands Anthony, a bright-eyed little boy with a love for soccer and a heart wide enough to love without hesitation.
As Anthony bonds with Alex over their shared passion, the walls Elianna has built start to crack. And for Alex, every moment spent with him, and with her, stirs a love that never truly died.
Some truths will hurt. Some forgiveness will be hard-earned.
But sometimes, love, even a fractured one, finds its way back home.
