Wish You Were Not Here

From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Asher comes a heartfelt, second-chance romance about two exes on a non-refundable honeymoon that forces them to confront everything that went wrong between them . . . and if there's anything left to save.

Natalia Aguilar isn't sure which mistake she regrets more: spending thousands of dollars on a honeymoon to celebrate a wedding that never happened or picking the non-refundable option because it was a better deal. Now that she's no longer engaged to Gabriel, she needs to choose between taking a financial hit or going on the trip despite the risk of running into her ex-fiancé for the first time since their breakup.

It's been over a year since their engagement was called off, and Gabriel Saint James is just starting to settle into his new life when he hears that Natalia is going on their honeymoon with another man. Rather than stay home, Gabriel decides his misery could use some company and crashes Natalia's romantic getaway meant for two.

Candlelit dinners, snorkelling excursions, and sunset hikes - whatever Natalia does, Gabriel is around to remind her that the man she fell in love with is still here . . . even if she wishes he wasn't.

During their trip, the two exes are forced to confront their feelings for one another and whether the past they're still holding on to is worth sacrificing the future they always dreamed of sharing together.
