Everything I Lost to Find You
What if the person you were always meant to love was the one you forgot you had already broken?
At twenty-four, Diamond Dave has a plan for everything.
She's ambitious, determined, and relentlessly focused on building the future she's always dreamed of, including a career that could take her all the way to NASA. She's worked too hard to let anything distract her now, especially not another disastrous relationship. After all, Diamond has learned the hard way that falling in love doesn't always mean finding happiness.
Then she meets Lukas Wales again.
At twenty-six, Lukas is no longer the boy Diamond remembers or perhaps the boy she barely remembers at all. Once her childhood best friend, he was the person who knew her before the disappointments, before the heartbreaks, and before life became a race to prove herself. Years ago, he made her a promise that she has long since forgotten.
He hasn't.
Their unexpected reunion brings old memories, painful confessions, and conversations neither of them knew they needed. As they open up about the relationships that left them wounded, Diamond begins to discover the man Lukas has become. Beneath his easygoing nature is someone who has endured profound loss, buried his own dreams beneath responsibility, and learned that sometimes a peaceful life is worth more than a perfect one.
But Diamond has spent her entire life reaching for something bigger. Lukas is learning how to live with what he's lost. And neither of them knows whether love can bridge the distance between the lives they want and the people they're becoming.
The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to ignore what has always been there and what might have been waiting for them all along.
Yet falling in love with your childhood best friend comes with a particular kind of risk: discovering that the past you remember isn't necessarily the past you shared.
Sometimes, the heart remembers what the mind forgets.
And sometimes, losing your way is the only way to find the person who was meant to find you.
EVERYTHING I LOST TO FIND YOU is a heartfelt contemporary romance about childhood friendship, second chances, healing after heartbreak, the weight of grief, and the courage to choose love without giving up on yourself.
