It’s the best day of his life–the worst of hers... When Hope Ends (life begins) by Freya Barker

"This author did an amazing job of bringing every character to life. I’m not sure how long it’s been since I felt so connected to not only a hero or heroine, but to the whole cast. [...] Ms. Barker mapped out a story filled with grief, love, joy and heart felt peace." Carvanz, Goodreads

Description:

Published: January 21st, 2020

It’s the best day of his life–the worst of hers.

She left her soul behind in the dead silence of a hospital room.

He is bright with hope after being so close to losing faith.

One moment in time leaves their paths unavoidably entwined.

An invisible connection held by one heart beating between them.

***Previously part of the anthology; Then There Was You.

EXCERPT

I pull myself up and run my hands through my hair as I walk down the steps. There I turn back to her. “Stay.”

Her eyes brim with tears. “But the risk is—”

“Every day you get out of bed is a risk. You and I know better than most how true that is. Whether you’re here, or somewhere else, won’t make a difference once the truth is out there. If they dig they could still find us, and all those other families. Leaving won’t serve any purpose.” I’ve been pacing back and forth, but on my last words I stop and face her.

“I don’t know what the smart thing is to do.”

She wrings her hands in her lap and her teeth are biting her bottom lip so hard I’m afraid she’ll break the skin.

I’ll examine why it’s so important to keep her here later, but for now I place my hands on the stair railing to brace myself, and lean forward, my nose almost touching hers.

“Stay.”
