Overview

What if the love story isn't the thing that saves you? Mara Ellison knows how to hold everyone together. She's the one who shows up, fills the gaps, swallows the panic, and calls it strength. But when burnout finally cracks through her careful life, she can't ignore the truth anymore: she's been using caretaking, and romance, as a way to disappear. Then she meets Evan Cho, a quiet woodworker with steady hands and an infuriating refusal to rush her. He doesn't chase. He doesn't fix. He asks what she wants and waits for the answer. As Mara tries to rebuild from the inside out, old patterns fight back. Family pressure, shame, and the familiar pull of being needed. Evan offers tenderness, but he won't let love become another way she abandons herself. Mara can reach for the comfort she's always chosen. Or she can choose the harder thing. Stay with herself, moment by moment, and risk a kind of intimacy that asks for nothing but her whole, imperfect truth. Before she can become ""us,"" can she finally become her?
