Ian Davison is a cynic. For him, it is quite hard to believe that people rarely have selfless reasons for doing the things that they do. He does not believe in promises and neither is he big on trusting people. He struggles at making friends and does he likes getting close to people, other than the ones he has known since childhood.
Never the less, Ian Davison had a way with words and no one could deny he wove magic when he set his pen to paper. This is why no one was really surprised to hear that he had be asked to attend Darleston Publishings Annual Artist's Retreat.
He was just as happy, until she found out who was going to attend the retreat right beside him. The root of all his problems and the reason he does not believe in a man's word anymore....

What If I Was Nothing?
They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.Complete
