Three months into marriage, Leigh thought she knew everything about her husband.
She was wrong.
One message.
One name.
One truth she wasn't supposed to find.
Luis betrayed her-but walking away wasn't as simple as it should have been.
Because love doesn't disappear overnight.
And sometimes... staying hurts more than leaving.
This is not a story about perfect love.
This is a story about choosing-
even after everything breaks.

ASHES OF WHAT WAS
He doesn't say my name anymore. He used to whisper it like a promise, like I was the future written in the stars. We used to dream the same dreams, hold the same broken pieces of each other. He once told me I was his "always." But that was before her. Before the girl who came after me and took everything I was still holding on to-the smile I used to cause, the arms that once only reached for me. And the worst part? He let her. He let her walk into the home I helped him build in his heart, and he never looked back. Now I am a secret. A silence. A name he flinches at when remembered-if I'm remembered at all. This isn't a love story. This is what comes after. After the promises are broken. After someone new takes your place. After the person you loved forgets you existed. This is the story of a girl who loved too deeply... And died quietly in someone else's happy ending.

Lala walks away, rebuilding her life as a successful artist in Jakarta, and finds Adrian-a man ready to give her the world. But when success is in her hands and a new love offers a perfect future, Lala's heart leads her back to an old house in Jogja. Back to the man who once broke her, yet knows every inch of her soul better than anyone. "Because sometimes, the home we miss the most is the place that once destroyed us."

After The Verdict
Reyna Voss has helped forty-seven couples end their marriages. She is thirty-two years old, the youngest partner in her firm's family law division, and she is very good at her job. She knows the language of endings - how to calculate the fair split, how to protect the children, how to make the dissolution of a shared life look clean on paper even when it never is in practice. What she has never told her colleagues, her clients, or her mother: her own marriage has been quietly disintegrating for at least a year. Maybe two. She is not sure anymore, because she has been too busy drafting other people's exits to notice the cracks forming in her own foundation. When her husband Eli tells her, on a Tuesday evening in their kitchen, that he has been seeing someone - and that the someone is her colleague - Reyna does not cry. She opens a legal notepad. She starts calculating. The grief comes six weeks later. In a parking lot. Without any warning at all. After the Verdict is the story of a woman who was trained to help people survive the collapse of love - and who has to figure out, entirely without training, how to survive her own.Complete
