He was her safety. She was his world. Until the “friend” she told him not to worry about became the man she left him for.
Liam and Chloe were the perfect couple. High school sweethearts, first loves, and on the verge of buying their dream home. They were the “safe” bet. The unbreakable team.
But safety can be boring.
When Chloe starts spending late nights gaming with Jace—a 21-year-old “bad boy” she insists is just a friend—Liam feels the distance growing. He’s told he’s paranoid. He’s told he’s insecure. He’s told he’s suffocating her.
Then, three weeks before the mortgage is signed, the bomb drops.
“I need to find myself.”
Blindsided and gutted, Liam is left in the wreckage of a six-year relationship. But the worst is yet to come. Because Chloe isn’t finding herself. She’s finding Jace.
In a brutal exploration of modern heartbreak, First To Break exposes the devastating reality of:
The “Monkey-Branching” phenomenon: Lining up a replacement before letting go.
The torture of comparison: When the “Nice Guy” is traded for the thrill of a toxic “Bad Boy.”
The specific agony of hearing your partner say the intimacy is better with someone else.
The gaslighting that makes you question your own sanity.
From the humiliation of the break-up to the hollow attempts at online dating, Liam’s journey is a raw, unflinching look at male heartbreak. It asks the question: When you build your entire life around one person, who are you when they leave?
Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, painful reality, and stories of emotional survival. This isn’t a fairytale. It’s a story about the scar tissue that forms when the person you trust most holds the knife.
