Sorry for any grammatical errors. I'm too tired to edit as of lately 

In the gripping sequel to Fight My Way, Devin Liao thought he had finally outrun his demons—PTSD, unbearable heartbreak, and the abyss of despair that once tempted him toward the edge. But just as the scars begin to fade, a late-night phone call rips his world apart.

The caller? A former enemy. The gift? A daughter he never knew existed—Autumn, a fifteen-year-old girl conceived with the wife who abandoned him sixteen years ago. As if that betrayal weren't enough, Devin learns that Trechial—the woman who shattered his heart—is locked away in a psychiatric hospital, lost within the fractured mind of her dissociative identity disorder. When she isn't herself, she becomes Shelly—a wild, loudmouthed, free-spirited stranger who has no idea who Devin is.

When Devin learns that Trechial is in danger, hunted by the same monster who tore their lives apart, his gut reaction is let her deal with it. He owes her nothing. But his daughter—his flesh and blood—pleads with him to bring her mother home. Against his better judgment, he does. And that's when the real war begins.

He did his best to stay his distant as much as possible but then one reckless night, Trechial—lost in her alter ego, Shelly—fell into his bed. The woman in his arms was wild, unrestrained, and uninhibited. She didn't hesitate. She didn't flinch when he touched her. But she didn't remember what happened the next morning.

And now, she was pregnant.

Now, with an estranged daughter under his roof, a pregnant wife who shifts between personas, and a relentless threat closing in, Devin must unravel the painful truths of his past. As old wounds resurface and new bonds are tested, one question remains: Can a broken family ever be whole again?

A story of unforgiveness, grudges, faith, and healing—where the road to restoration is paved with pain, but the journey just might lead to something worth saving.

Trechial never imagined she would have to abandon the love of her life—her high school sweetheart, her husband, the father of her unborn child. But when her stepfather's monstrous betrayal leaves her broken and terrified, she has no choice but to disappear.

Fleeing the town she once called home, Trechial knew she was not only changing her own fate but Devin's as well. She had carried twins but the trauma of her escape costs her one of them. The other clung to life inside her as she vanished into the shadows, aided by an unlikely savior—Erin, Charlie's son and Devin's sworn enemy.

Six months later, Trechial finds herself working at a dingy sports bar near Camp Lejeune, just trying to survive. Then Devin walks in, laughing, sitting next to a beautiful girl who leans into him, a dazzling smile on her face. She watches in astonishment as they share intimate chatter and flirtatious glances. Instead of confronting Devin, she watches him walk out the door and into the night with the anonymous girl.

It was years later, that Trechial got a call that shattered her world—Devin is dead. Erin swears it, and Trechial grieves as if a part of her has died with him. But grief is short-lived when Charlie finds her once more, more ruthless than ever. To keep her daughter, Autumn, safe, Trechial does the unthinkable—enduring days of torment at his hands. But even her sacrifice isn't enough. Charlie kills her mother in cold blood.

The next time she escapes, she isn't the same woman. Dissociative Identity Disorder takes root, splitting her into someone she doesn't recognize—wild, reckless, unfiltered. And every time Charlie finds her, the fracture deepens. Until the last time, when her daughter saved her by calling for help. But instead of freedom, Trechial wakes up in a mental hospital. Months later she is met with the last person she ever expected to see—Devin.

He isn't dead. He never was—and he never looked for her. The betrayal cut deeper than any wound Charlie ever left on her.

And just when things couldn't be more complicated, another devastating truth emerges—while trapped in her alter ego, Shelly, she slept with Devin in a reckless, uninhibited moment. And now, she's pregnant.

Fury, confusion, and resentment—Trechial and Devin struggle to navigate their broken past, which shattered into a million pieces the day Trechial walked away. But as Charlie closes in once more, Trechial is forced to put her pride aside and let Devin protect her while she restores the missing pieces that separated them years ago.

A story of pain, fractured love, and the fightfor redemption—where hatred and heartbreak stand in the way of healing, and theonly way forward is through the wreckage of the past
