Not Chosen

A Mystery of Choice and Consequence

Get Your Copy on Amazon

Intro

Maya Rattanakorn spent her life chasing validation from people who never saw her worth. Then her CFO was murdered for rejecting mob money—and suddenly, someone was paying very close attention.

 

The people she trusted most kept secrets they claimed were for her protection. They were wrong. Now Maya stands alone with evidence to expose, a company to save, and dangerous people who want her silenced.

Survival requires a skill she's never mastered: knowing when to stop fighting for people who won't fight alongside her.

Attention is currency. And Maya is done spending it on the wrong battles.

In this Thai-American romantic suspense debut, fractured bonds are rebuilt through raw honesty, with AAPI heroines driving high-stakes romance and intelligent suspense that keeps you guessing.
