Ava Sinclair knows how to put on a perfect performance. Behind her fragile veneer of confidence is a woman haunted by the past—a small-town scandal, and a face she no longer recognizes in the mirror. Success might give her a second chance. But redemption love stories are never easy, and healing from trauma and shame is harder to earn.

Her big break comes when she convinces her VC firm to back a revolutionary AI... tech that could change lives. But the software isn't ready. And neither is the man who built it.

Aidan Wolfe never meant to get involved. Hiding behind firewalls and anonymity suits him just fine—until Ava logs in. To preserve the deal, he pretends to be the AI she believes in, just long enough to buy time to fix it.

But what starts as a lie becomes a slow burn romance neither of them expected. And secrets never stay buried.

When the truth surfaces, it won't just threaten their reputations—it could wreck the fragile connection they never meant to build.

The intimacy of You've Got Mail with the emotional depth of Jojo Moyes and Taylor Jenkins Reid—Dear Adam is a literary love story—a character-driven women's fiction novel about love and betrayal, shame and forgiveness, and the courage it takes to be truly seen.
"I started reading expecting a love story. What I got was a lingering heartache, wrapped in beautiful writing."
