She said no to the love of her life. Now she has to say yes to the truth.

He was her childhood best friend. Her first love. The one that got away—because she let him.

Abby and Brad were always supposed to end up together. After a childhood full of pinky promises and scraped knees, their reunion as adults feels like fate. But when Brad drops to one knee, Abby says no—then watches him walk away. Again.

Now he’s halfway across the world, and she’s stuck in Melbourne wondering why she can’t say yes to the one man who feels like home. Maybe it’s not about Brad at all. Maybe it’s about the secrets buried in the Balinese rainforest—secrets that destroyed her family once and are still holding her back.

To get her happily ever after, Abby has to go digging into a past no one wants her to uncover… especially when love is on the line.

Big Girls Don’t Cry is a feel-everything romance with second chances, soul-searching, and just enough mystery to keep you up way too late. Perfect for fans of emotional slow burns and heart-healing plot twists.
