Avalanche

On February 20, 2016, Megan Roberts' life shattered in an instant. Her fiancé Nick was killed in an avalanche just eight months before their wedding leaving her to navigate a landscape of devastating loss she never imagined she'd face at thirty years old. Avalanche is the raw account of what came next: the suffocating early days of grief, the rage and guilt, the financial and legal battles that compounded her pain, and the excruciating process of learning to breath again when the person you planned your future with is gone.

Written in real time through blog entries that span nearly three years, this memoir captures the messy, non-linear reality of grief that few are willing to share. From the moment she received the devastating news to finding unexpected love again, becoming a mother, and discovering that moving forward isn't betrayal but rather love in motion, Megan holds nothing back.

For anyone who has ever experienced profound loss, felt like they were drowning in grief, or wondered if joy could ever return, Avalanche offers something precious: honest companionship in the darkness, and proof that survival is possible, even when it feels impossible.
