Me, First: A Smart, Sensual Romance for Women Who've Lived A Little (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798247547099)

I didn't leave my marriage looking for love.
I left it looking for myself.

After sixteen years with the same man-high school sweetheart, husband, co-parent-I thought I understood commitment. What I didn't understand was how quietly you can disappear while doing everything right.

When my marriage ended, I made one rule:
No relationships.
No futures implied.
No losing myself again.

Just desire.
Just honesty.
Just me.

What followed was a year that taught me more than my marriage ever had-about sex, boundaries, and the difference between attention and intimacy. I learned how pleasure can be loud without being meaningful. How connection can feel thrilling and still leave you empty. And how choosing yourself can feel unfamiliar when you've spent years putting everyone else first.

Then I met someone who didn't rush me.
Didn't unsettle me.
Didn't ask me to be smaller, quieter, or easier to love.

This is not a story about being rescued.
It's not about starting over at any cost.

Me, First. is a sexy, emotionally grounded contemporary romance about reclaiming desire without losing yourself-and discovering that love, when chosen from clarity instead of fear, can feel like home.

Perfect for readers who love smart, sensual women's fiction with depth, agency, and heart-stories about second chances, self-trust, and passion after life has already happened.
