First part

He didn't expect to fall in love
He never expected to die
And he never ever imagined watching her moving on would be the hardest part.

When Emmett moves to Maywyn, he's used to goodbyes. But meeting Anne changes everything. For the first time, something- someone- feels worth staying for. Then suddenly he's gone. Caught between life and whatever comes after, Emmett lingers. Not ready to let go. Not ready to lose her.

As he watches Anne navigate grief, healing and the flickers of new love, Emmett faces the one goodbye he never prepared for: his own.
