Feeling the Tug: A Contemporary Inspirational Romance

In the rhythm of love, every heartbeat counts.

Tessie, a spirited 28-year-old journalist with a passion for dance and a knack for uncovering the truth, has always found solace in her independence. Love was never on her radar-until Rudy. A pest control specialist with a heart as kind as his soul, Rudy's unwavering compassion sparks something Tessie never expected: hope for a future filled with love.

Just as her heart begins to open, Tessie is blindsided by a life-altering diagnosis: leptomeningeal disease, a rare and aggressive cancer. Her world crumbles, but Rudy remains her steadfast anchor, standing by her side as she faces grueling treatments and an uncertain future. Their love blossoms in the shadow of despair, culminating in a breathtakingly bittersweet moment-Rudy's heartfelt proposal on the very day they learn Tessie has only six weeks to live.

With time slipping through their fingers, their wedding becomes a celebration of love's enduring strength. Yet, even in the face of devastating odds, Tessie refuses to let go of hope. She clings to the haunting melody of "I Can Feel the Tug," a song that becomes the anthem of her journey-a symbol of faith, love, and the fight to hold on.

And then the unthinkable happens.

On the brink of death, Tessie feels her heart stop. When she wakes, gasping for air, she utters words that leave everyone stunned: "I felt it. I felt the tug." Against all odds, her cancer is gone-a miraculous second chance that defies explanation.

But miracles have their own challenges. As Tessie and Rudy navigate this unexpected twist of fate, they must confront whether their love can thrive in the aftermath of pain, uncertainty, and the weight of a miracle they never saw coming.

Perfect for readers who cherish deeply emotional stories of resilience, faith, and the enduring power of love, this poignant tale will break your heart, mend it, and leave you breathless.
