When she risked her heart, he broke it. If he wants her forgiveness, he'll have to beg for it.

EDEN
I thought the days of protecting my heart with mindless flings were over. Zach promised me a future I never dared to hope for: a partner in crime and a family who truly wants me.

But after I moved in, Zach checked out. He’s distant, always at the office, and has never whispered the ‘I love you’ I desperately need to hear. He treats me like an afterthought. I’m nothing but the last tick box on his five-year plan.

But I didn’t become Sydney’s hottest hairstylist by settling for second best. Six months later, no ring, and Zach’s former hookup causing drama? I’m done.
 

ZACH
I’ve sacrificed everything to be more than the nerd from the wrong side of the tracks. Surviving ten years in the city’s most cutthroat law firm didn’t just make me a good lawyer; I’m the best. Love? That has never been a priority with partnership on the line…until Eden.

I know I’ve neglected our relationship. I convinced myself Eden would wait. But when I return home to an empty apartment, reality finally hits me—I’ve lost the woman more precious than any promotion.

Half-hearted apologies and flowers won’t be enough to prove I deserve a second chance. Choosing Eden means risking everything I’ve ever worked for.
