an important quality or feature on which a particular thing depends or is based.
Wendy has loved her husband Atlas since she was twelve years old..
He was her first kiss, her first love, her forever.
Together, they built a perfect life - married after high school, raised two beautiful boys together, and were still blissfully in love.
Until Atlas pulled away.
Wendy did everything she could to keep their marriage from unraveling-juggling the house, the kids, and all the invisible labor no one thanks her for. But when Atlas fails to show up to their final resort therapy session, Wendy makes a different choice - she stops waiting for him.
Determined to take her life back, Wendy gets a job, rediscovering her independence and finding unexpected freedom in a world where she no longer carries the weight for both of them.
While she flourishes, Atlas unravels. He watches everything that matters slip through his fingers-his wife, his sons, the family he thought he was protecting by keeping his fear to himself.
But to heal their fractured marriage, Atlas will have to face the real reason he pulled away...
And what does it have to do with his brother's late wife, Carrie?
A marriage-in-trouble second chance romance. No cheating, HEA always.
