She’s trapped by expectations — he’s trapped in an empty marriage.
A girl from the past — a man stuck in the present.
And a love that changes everything — only it might be too late.
But… “Sometimes, we have to give up our principles to live our dreams.”
Nothing before her —
A brutally honest, yet compelling romantic novel about burnout, longing, and irreversible choices. And a burning love that hides secrets — some unspoken, others unknown.
“I asked Peter if the story was true. He said yes. That’s… rough.”
— Kate Marlowe, editor
Peter Radley is a Central European journalist and media professional. This is the first of his novels to be translated into English — beautifully rendered through the brilliantly sensitive voice of Kate Marlowe.
