Eli spent his childhood as an outcast in small-town Georgia, ridiculed for being different. College gave him a taste of freedom, but it wasn't until he met Aaron that he believed he had found true love. Together, they built a life, a home, and a future—until one devastating moment shattered it all.

After ten years, Eli lost the love of his life and blames himself. The betrayal sent him into a spiral of self-destruction, losing himself in reckless choices and heartbreak. But when he hits rock bottom, Eli makes a choice: to heal.

Returning to Georgia to be with family, Eli unexpectedly becomes the sole guardian of his nephew. Determined to give the child a safe, loving home, he sacrifices his own happiness, living single and celibate for sixteen years, afraid of how the world might judge a gay man raising a child alone.

But when his nephew turns sixteen, he gives Eli something he never expected: permission to love again.

Taking a leap of faith, Eli meets Marcus, a man who sees him for who he truly is—past wounds and all. As their love grows, Eli must decide: Will he let go of fear and take a second chance on happiness?

A moving story of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of second chances, Rebuilding Tomorrow is a powerful LGBTQ+ novel about love, family, and the courage to rebuild.

Sometimes, the hardest part of life isn't letting go—it's believing you deserve something better.
