He promised she'd always come first.
Until another woman became his priority.
For twenty-one years, Zoe believed Chris Walters was the love of her life. But after years of being pushed aside for his late brother's widow, she reaches her breaking point when he forgets their anniversary—again.
This time, she doesn't beg.
She leaves.
Now, for the first time in years, Chris is forced to face the painful truth: he never stopped loving his wife—he simply stopped choosing her. But after years of neglect, broken promises, and a marriage built on second place, winning Zoe back will take far more than an apology.
Sometimes, losing the woman you've always loved is the only way to realize she should have been first all along.
An emotional marriage-in-crisis romance featuring regret, emotional neglect, heartfelt groveling, therapy, healing, and a hero who must earn the only woman he's ever truly loved. No cheating. Guaranteed HEA.
