Produktbeschreibung

"She wrote their almost-love into secret cards; he built his life on being good for everyone but her. Ten years later, sharing a small apartment, they finally have to decide if 'because we were us' is a memory or a beginning."

She archived their almost-love in a shoebox of unsent cards. He built his life on doing the "right" thing for everyone but her. A decade later, sharing a small apartment and a long history, Callie and Theo finally have to decide whether "because we were us" is a closed chapter or the first line of a new one.

Callie has always loved from the edges. As a designer, she makes other people's milestones look beautiful. As a friend, she remembers birthdays and cleans up after parties. As a woman who has been in love with her best friend since college, she writes what she cannot say onto index cards and hides them in a box on a high shelf. When Theo marries someone else, those cards become the only place she lets the truth exist.

Years later, Theo's marriage is over and their lives have folded back around each other. They are roommates now, co-owners of a crowded fridge and a lumpy couch, pretending that what happened between them belongs firmly in the past. Theo tells himself he did the honorable thing, even if it meant losing Callie. Callie tells herself that surviving meant shrinking her wants until they fit inside cardboard.

The night the box comes down, everything changes. As Theo reads the words he was never meant to see, he has to face the gap between the man he thought he was and the choices he actually made. As Callie watches him absorb a decade of unsent love, she has to decide whether she will keep translating herself into silence or risk saying out loud what the cards have been saying for years.

When a prestigious overseas opportunity forces them to answer the question they have both avoided, they choose a different kind of bravery. No grand gestures, no airport chases, just two people at a kitchen table, finally telling the truth about what they want from themselves and from each other.

"Because We Were Us" is a heartfelt, slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance about unsent letters, shared apartments, and the steady, unspectacular courage it takes to rebuild trust after too many almost. Ideal for readers who love character-driven stories, deep emotional arcs, and endings that feel like real life finally catching up with long-held hope.
