Maya has built a quiet life - one that asks for little and expects even less. Growing up unseen taught her how to be self-sufficient, careful, and easy to overlook. It's a life that feels safe, if a little unfinished.
Then one evening, a message meant for someone else appears on her phone.
Kat is everything Maya is not - social, expressive, effortlessly connected to the world. What begins as an accidental text turns into a slow, unexpected friendship carried entirely through messages: shared routines, missed days, small kindnesses, and the steady choice to keep answering back.
As the years pass, both women change - not through grand gestures, but through consistency, patience, and learning how to stay.
The Message That Wasn't Meant For Me is a gentle, intimate novel, about found friendship, emotional neglect, and the quiet courage it takes to believe you deserve connection.
Because sometimes, the smallest reply can reshape a life.
