Matt Carter's life is fine.
That's what he tells himself, anyway. A job that pays the bills. A flat that does the job. Friends who keep him afloat when the days feel longer than they should. He isn't unhappy - just quietly stuck, surviving a life that feels like it stopped moving without him noticing.
Then, one ordinary Wednesday night, Matt meets Sophie.
It's nothing dramatic. Just a conversation in a bar. Thirty minutes of unexpected honesty, laughter, and ease. And then she leaves - because Sophie is getting married.
As Sophie prepares for a wedding that looks perfect on paper, she finds herself wrestling with a growing sense that something isn't quite right. Between spreadsheets, expectations, and a life carefully shaped around keeping everyone else comfortable, she begins to question whether the future she's walking towards is really her own.
Told through shifting perspectives and small, pivotal moments, Almost is a tender, funny, and quietly devastating story about timing, missed chances, and the lives we build by default. It explores the courage it takes to sit with uncomfortable truths, the difference between being chosen and choosing, and what it means to wake up just in time - or just too late.
Warm, honest, and achingly relatable, Almost is for anyone who has ever wondered whether fine is enough... and what might happen if you finally let yourself ask for more.
