At twenty-three, Layla Monroe walks into her first AA meeting with a hangover, a bruised heart, and no real plan - just a hope she can't explain.
Raised in a home stained by addiction and emotional neglect, Layla has spent years chasing numbness: bad relationships, long nights, and bottles hidden beneath her bed. But after a dangerous spiral with her ex, a public arrest, and a chance encounter with Jaxson a quiet cop with his own history of scars Layla begins the long, uneven climb toward recovery.
Still Standing is a raw, emotionally charged novel about surviving abuse, breaking cycles, and learning to live without apology. With the support of unlikely friendships, late-night AA meetings, and her own fragile strength, Layla faces the past that shaped her and starts choosing a future that might finally belong to her.
This is not a story about being saved.
It's a story about staying.
