Carry You With Me by Alex Husb is a heartfelt, emotionally rich contemporary romance about grief, healing, and the possibility of love finding you when you least expect it.

Bakery owner London Simmons has her life together on paper. Her business is thriving, her friendships are solid, and she has worked hard to move beyond the heartbreaks of her past. Everything shifts when she loses her best friend Brandy to a senseless act of violence. In the midst of grieving, she finds unexpected comfort in Eli Jackson, Brandy’s widower and the boy she used to admire from across the street.

Eli has spent years pouring himself into work, trying to rebuild a life that no longer feels whole. London steps in with kindness and familiarity, reminding him of the warmth he once knew. What begins as support rooted in shared sorrow slowly turns into something more complicated. The feelings that emerge are tender, real, and difficult to ignore.

Their bond deepens, even as Eli’s younger cousin Kam makes his own intentions toward London known. The emotional tension builds as old loyalties are tested and unspoken truths rise to the surface. London and Eli must decide whether their connection is strong enough to risk the delicate balance of their lives.

This is a story about choosing love after loss, redefining what home feels like, and learning that even the deepest wounds can lead to something beautiful.
