He swiped right because of a comma. She swiped right because of a full stop. Neither expected their match to be lying three beds away.
Mira Schäfer is spending the night at Berlin's Charité with twenty-six electrodes glued to her head and one objective: prove that her worsening seizures are still something she can manage alone.
Jonas Albrecht is wired up in the same ward, waiting for answers about the episodes cracking the effortless version of himself he has spent twenty-nine years perfecting.
They cannot cross the room. They can barely whisper. So they text.
Hidden behind phone screens and hospital dark, Mira and Jonas tell each other truths they have never managed in daylight. By morning, the electrodes are gone. The connection is not.
What begins as a medically supervised meet-cute becomes ghost-station walks, late-night kitchens, a grey cat with opinions, and the dangerous relief of being understood without explanation. But Mira is hiding how quickly her epilepsy is changing. Jonas is still performing fine so convincingly that even he no longer knows where the mask ends.
Falling for each other is easy. Staying will mean doing the one thing neither of them has learned how to do:
letting someone see everything.
WIRED is a tender, funny, open-door contemporary romance about epilepsy, autistic masking, hurt/comfort, and the terrifying intimacy of being known. Book One of The Ward-a standalone romance with a happy-for-now ending and no cliffhanger.
For readers of Chloe Liese and Helen Hoang.
