Too Much: A Woman Who Refused To Shrink for Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250203807)

Men admire Kayla King's confidence-until they realize she will not make herself smaller to protect their ego.

At thirty-two, Kayla owns a successful luxury real estate firm in Kansas City, knows what she wants, and has built a life she is proud of. Yet her dating history keeps following the same pattern: men are drawn to her ambition, then begin treating her independence like a character flaw.

Through therapy and a series of revealing dates, Kayla confronts an uncomfortable truth. She has been managing other people's egos, choosing men she can outgrow, and confusing emotional intensity with chemistry. Breaking the pattern will require more than rejecting the wrong men. She must stop explaining, performing, and auditioning for love.

Then Kayla meets Alex-calm, consistent, and emotionally available. He does not compete with her or ask her to "fall back." But accepting healthy love may be the riskiest thing she has ever done.

Too Much: A Woman Who Refused to Shrink for Love is a contemporary women's short story about a successful woman navigating dating, high standards, unhealthy relationship patterns, and reciprocal love without apology.

A standalone story in the Women Who Choose Themselves collection. Each story can be read in any order.
