Some people run from grief.
Ryan Callahan threw a dart at a map.
After seventeen years of watching Parkinson's steal her father piece by piece, she's left with nothing to hold together. No patient, no purpose, no idea who she is without someone to care for.
So she does the only logical thing: gets drunk, quits her job, throws a dart at a map, and takes the long way to Oklahoma City.
What she finds there unravels everything she thought she knew about love, grief, identity, and what it means to finally choose herself.
Drawn into a found family that doesn't follow conventional rules, Ryan begins to understand that healing isn't linear. Neither is love. What unfolds is messy, tender, explicit, and brutally honest: a woman who has spent her life holding everything together, learning for the first time how to let go.
Anatomy of Release is a contemporary literary romance exploring ethical non-monogamy, grief, sexual agency, and the terrifying beauty of becoming.
For readers who want stories that feel a little too real, a little too raw, and refuse to look away.
Content note: Contains explicit scenes and themes of grief, parental loss, and consensual non-monogamy.
