Description:
Nina Vane recognized her fiancé's hands the moment she saw the photo.
Jason Hale, who claimed to despise durian. Who had an immovable rule about eating in his car. Who had called couple photos childish. Opening a durian for his ex-girlfriend, the caption reading: "You'll never say no to me."
In the drawer of his desk, Nina found a terabyte of evidence: every photo he'd taken of Mia, every letter he'd written, every version of love he'd apparently been capable of — and had never chosen to give her.
She broke off the engagement that night. Cleanly. Without drama.
What followed was neither revenge nor recovery, but something quieter and more permanent: the story of a woman untangling her company from his, her life from his expectations, and herself from the belief that she had to be grateful for whatever she received.
A novel about knowing your own worth.
