About this audiobook
She texted the wrong number.
She sent her most furious, most honest, most embarrassing message — the one she would never have said out loud — to a complete stranger.
He wrote back.
Maya Chen is drowning in overthinking. After a promising date ends in spectacular disappointment, she vents to her best friend. Except the message doesn't go to her best friend. It goes to a stranger in Brooklyn who replies with the kind of sharp, warm, anonymous wit that cracks her open in ways she wasn't prepared for.
No face. No pressure. No exhausting performance of being okay.
Just a voice in her phone that seems to see her clearly.
What starts as an accidental conversation becomes the most intimate relationship of her life — shared jokes, quiet fears, the kind of 3 a.m. honesty that doesn't happen with people you have to see in daylight.
Then her boss assigns her to interview Liam Calloway.
Liam is the elusive lead architect behind a controversial Park Slope development — guarded, precise, infuriatingly controlled. Their first meeting crackles with hostility. He's cold and dismissive, everything her anonymous texter is not.
Except for the way he looks at her. Like he's waiting for her to figure something out.
As Maya's late-night messages grow more confessional and her run-ins with Liam grow more charged, a thread begins to pull between two separate worlds. Every time her phone lights up, the stranger says exactly what Liam cannot. Every time Liam looks at her, something flickers behind his eyes that she cannot name.
She's falling for two men who couldn't be more different.
She doesn't know she's already given one of them every fractured piece of her heart.
But Liam is hiding more than his identity. There's a reason for the walls. A real one. And when the truth begins to surface, Maya will have to decide: walk away from the man who deceived her, or trust the one voice that never lied about how it felt.
The Space Between Texts is a swoony, slow-burn contemporary romance about wrong numbers, real connection, and falling for someone before you know their name.
Perfect for readers who love fake identities, enemies-to-lovers tension, slow burn friends-to-lovers, witty texting romance, and the electric chemistry of Zoe Dod and Elle Kennedy.
Standalone romance with a hard-earned happy ending.
