Chloe De Luca is a 30-something traveling nurse who enjoyed the thrill of finding a new city to navigate and new patients to meet and treat. Her fiancé, Jeremy, was seemingly always along for the ride, until his company finally settles him into a high-ranking role, in cornerstone office, and the traditional 9 to 5. He seemed to support Chloe's need to continue to travel and explore, and their relationship seemed perfect.
Until it wasn't.
When she returns home, the rug is ripped out from under her, and she's forced to reckon with the loose threads she left behind just a few years before. At the forefront? A situationship with her older brother's best friend, Zack, that becomes increasingly harder to deny as time passes. Chloe is forced to deal with her rebounding feelings - and lying to the people she cares about - as she rebuilds her life from scratch.

Bloom in the wake of Ruin ⚣ ✔️
"Excuse me, sir. I think you may have dropped these?" It was the voice I noticed first. Smooth, a little amused, and low enough to draw me out of myself. Then I saw him. Dirty blonde hair that looked like waves crashing down the sides of his face, and freckles like splattered paint across his fair skin. A silver hoop in his nose, another in his brow, both catching the light. And those eyes... electric blue, staring into my green ones with intensity. - After a heartbreaking loss, Killian has spent two years shielding himself from love, or any human contact really-convinced that no one could ever replace the person he lost. Finn, on the other hand, is caught in the throes of a toxic relationship, knowing he's not getting what he deserves but is too scared to walk away. When their paths cross, the spark is undeniable, but both are hesitant, scared of getting too close. Killian fears the pain of loving and losing again, while Finn's relationship has made him lose hope all together-almost. Will they let their pasts define them, or can they find the courage to bloom together in the wake of their ruins?Complete
