Tae has always been the second choice-overlooked by friends, overshadowed by her sister, and passed over in love. Her quiet resilience hides years of heartbreak, as she's grown used to settling for less than she deserves. That is, until she meets Torey, a kind and grounded man who sees her in full color from the start. With gentle persistence, he shows Tae what it means to be chosen first-not out of pity, but out of genuine admiration and love. As their bond deepens, Tae begins to unlearn her belief that she is only ever "almost enough"-realizing she was always worthy of being a priority.
