"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived."
Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival. Instead, it became the year everything unraveled-family, friendships, and the walls she built around her pain. Diagnosed with BPD, trapped between silence and screams, and carrying scars she thought no one could love, she was certain the world had forgotten her.
Then came Chase-gentle, persistent, and painfully human. What began as an accidental connection in a library became the lifeline she never knew she needed.
This is not a love story in the way you expect.
It's about healing in slow, aching pieces.
It's about therapy sessions, midnight breakdowns, found family, and daring to believe in something softer.
It's about what happens when you stop surviving and start living.
And maybe, just maybe-find someone worth fighting your way back for.
Raw. Real. Relatable.
If you've ever been on the edge of something-grief, love, adulthood, or your own mind-this book is for you.
