When Becky Armstrong's wedding day ends in tragedy-her fiancé presumed dead in a car crash just moments before their vows-her life is thrown into disarray. Six months pregnant and emotionally shattered, Becky finds herself drowning in grief, disbelief, and the impossible weight of raising a child alone. Enter Freen Sarocha Chankimha-the Armstrong brothers' best friend, Seattle's most renowned cardiothoracic surgeon, and the one woman Becky has never been able to tolerate. Raised under the same roof but always kept at arm's length, Freen has loved Becky silently, unconditionally, and without hope for years. When Becky's parents propose an unexpected solution-a marriage between Becky and Freen to protect both mother and child-Freen agrees, asking for nothing in return. Becky, hardened and heartbroken, makes it clear she can never love her. But marriage has a way of unraveling the truth-about grief, about loyalty, and about the kind of love that survives in silence. "In the Absence of Love" is a story of slow-burn healing, unspoken promises, and the quiet ways someone can save your heart... even when you've given up on it.

Freen and Becky - both brilliant rebels who eludes relationships - are about to meet their match. Freen, a confident and cocky international photographer, lives life through a lens, untethered and unapologetic. Becky, a sharp-minded business prodigy and reluctant heiress, is determined to carve her own path, far from the shadow of her family's fortune. When their worlds collide, will they clash in chaos - or discover an unexpected adventure in each other?
