Sloane has learned the hard way that some kinds of closeness aren't worth the compromise. As an asexual event planner who craves structure and clear boundaries, she's built a life that works-alone.
Then astronomer Julian asks her not just for a date, but for something more radical: to write the terms of their relationship together.
What begins as a four-page document becomes a new way of building intimacy. They negotiate every touch. Schedule monthly check-ins. Create protocols for conflict and consent. It's clinical and unconventional and exactly what Sloane needs-until the very structure meant to protect them starts to feel like a cage.
When following the rules becomes easier than feeling, when I'm fine replaces honest conversation, they face a choice: abandon the framework that brought them together, or learn that real relationships aren't about perfect execution-they're about continuous revision.
A contemporary romance for anyone who's ever been told they're too much or not enough. For readers who believe love isn't found chemistry but negotiated trust, built one honest conversation at a time.
Sometimes the most romantic thing isn't effortless compatibility. It's choosing someone deliberately-and doing the work to keep choosing them.
