Rise Above -- C. M. Stewart, Paperback
Aife's entire career was built on helping others survive what she endured, medical trauma no one should have to experience. Her time as a social worker has been dedicated to changing the medical system, helping others heal, and hiding her own trauma behind shrewd professionalism and unphased control.
TJ's focus has always been hockey; relief only coming when on the ice. Strength is an expectation, toughness a value, and any sign of weakness is a liability. Beneath his enforcer exterior, he longs for true connection, a sense of belonging beyond his family.
A friendly pick up soccer game changes everything. A reluctant friendship turns into something unexpected- slow, unwavering and very real.
Both know all too well how quickly a good thing can turn sour. Love takes work; it demands but it can also be patient, kind, and healing. Are Aife and TJ willing to rise above it?
