Angol
She's learning to walk again. He's learning how to stop carrying everyone alone.
After a drunk driver shatters Eleanor Hart's body and her fragile sense of normal, all she wants is to get through recovery without becoming someone people look at with pity. But the Long Road Charity 10K is waiting in June, tied to the father she lost ten months ago and the promise they never got to finish.
Rowan Whitely is an ICU nurse who knows exactly how to help people survive a crisis. What he doesn't know is how to let himself need anyone. Ellie should be just another patient, but her humor, grief, and fierce determination stay with him long after his shift ends.
Once Ellie is discharged, the line between them changes. Rowan starts running for the first time in his life. Ellie starts believing maybe her body hasn't betrayed her completely. And somewhere between painful first steps, porch repairs, late-night comfort, and a finish line neither of them can face alone, they fall hard.
But healing isn't simple. Grief doesn't vanish because love arrives. And when a devastating loss shakes Rowan's world, Ellie must decide if she's strong enough to be there for him too.
Emotional, intimate, and hopeful, Until The Finish Line is a small-town contemporary romance about recovery, chosen family, deep grief, and the kind of love that doesn't erase the pain, but stays anyway.
