Abstract of the book "Imperfect Desire"

Alexei Volkov survived the death of his son. What he won’t survive is watching his wife stop loving him. Irina was his home, his weakness, and the love of his life. But tragedy left them buried beneath silence, guilt, and ruins neither of them knew how to rebuild. When Irina asked for a divorce, Alexei was too broken to stop her. So he let her go. Now she has returned to Russia, determined to start over—stronger, freer, and finally moving on. And with every step she takes away from him, something inside Alexei breaks, because he can endure the distance, the blame, and even her hatred. What he cannot endure is seeing her smile for another man. Irina wants a new life. Alexei wants a second chance before his imperfect desire loses her forever.
