Held After

Nova Quinn thought one night ruined everything.

Now she's pregnant, drowning in rumors, trapped in a town that won't stop talking, and trying to survive a future she never asked for. With an unstable home life and more pain than she knows what to do with, Nova is sure this is the end of her story.

Until people start refusing to let her disappear.

Her friends stand between her and the world.
Jolene gives her a home.
And Blake Sawyer - the loud, beautiful country boy with a soft heart and nowhere near enough sense - stays through all of it. Through the fear. Through the anger. Through every brutal, heartbreaking piece of what comes next.

And somewhere in the wreckage, Nova finds something she never expected to have again:

Love.
Family.
Home.
And a little boy who changes everything.

Held After is a raw, emotional story about surviving the worst, being loved through the aftermath, and learning that life after pain can still be beautiful.
