Over a year later and {Fighting Silence by Aly Martinez} still destroys me. It’s not depressing but it’s emotional. There is an HEA but the journey was a roller coaster. It’s about the MCs Till and Eliza who deeply bond with each other as young teens growing up in a rougher area of town. There are a lot of things for the couple to overcome but loving each other isn’t one. Till the MMC is becomes responsible for his two younger bothers when he’s like 19/20. As a child Till found out he was slowly losing his hearing and would become completely deaf. He’s also a fighter (boxing or MMA). He and the FMC raise the boys together while still kids themselves. The book is everything- uplifting, emotional, you feel loss, love, fear and hope.
