Waking Estella

After the death of her husband, Estella disappears into the shadows of her home - starving herself, barely speaking, and surrendering to a numb, endless silence. She lets David's closest friends into her space, but not her heart. They cook, clean, and try to reach her... but she's lost.

Bennett, steady and patient, is the first to break through. Atticus, gentle but bold, coaxes her into the sun. Milo, quiet and haunted, watches from the sidelines; until the truth comes out.

Beneath Estella's grief lie bruises and scars no one wanted to see. But now, they can't be ignored. And Milo has a secret of his own... one that could destroy everything.

As the men care for her, touch her, claim her in ways that bring her back to life, Estella begins to bloom again but not without consequences. The past is closing in. The police are asking questions. And Estella must decide: protect the man who saved her... or let him go.

It's not just a story about healing. This story is about finding light in the ashes and choosing who you'd set the world on fire for. Waking Estella is a why-choose, post-traumatic romance. There will be plenty of spice but also confronting themes including DV, depression and more. Please check TW's prior to reading.
