"Aku hanya tak terima diputuskan begitu saja. Aku bahkan tak tahu letak kesalahanku dimana." Steve memainkan kaleng sodanya yang sudah tandas. "Kau tak memiliki salah apapun," balas Lynn. Rasanya Lynn ingin mengatakan bahwa Rose memang tak pantas untuk Steve, Rose tak pantas mendapat cinta Steve. Namun, kalimat itu hanya menggantung di kepalanya. Dia tak mungkin berani mengatakan hal itu pada Steve. "Aku bisa membantumu ... move on dari dia!" ujar Lynn sontak Steve memandangnya. Tatapannya redup, berkabung luka patah hati. Lynn membalas tersenyum, mengangguk menyakinkan Steve bahwa dia benar-benar bersungguh-sungguh dengan ucapannya. Steve menghela napas kasar.

In the chaos and quiet of her 30s, a woman reflects on the loves that shaped her, the heartbreaks that undid her, and the tender spaces in between. Through fleeting romances, almost-loves, and the weight of expectations—family’s, society’s, and her own—she navigates a world where connection is currency, vulnerability is rebellion, and self-discovery never comes easy. Told with wit, warmth, and raw honesty, this novel is a journey through modern love: messy, magical, and sometimes maddening. It's about the people who entered her life, the ones who left, and the version of herself she’s still becoming.

"Gue tahu lo nerima pernikahan ini karena cinta mati sama gue. Siapa sih, yang bisa nolak pesona kegantengan ini?" Erick berdiri di hadapan gadis lugu yang tadi siang baru saja sah menjadi istrinya.
