The Comeback by Lily Chu

"She’s built a life on precision. He’s about to shatter it with one secret.

Ariadne Hui’s plan is airtight: become partner at Toronto’s most prestigious law firm, stay focused, and don’t let emotions―or people―get in the way. Her life is perfectly controlled, down to the minute.

Then Jihoon arrives.

He's her roommate’s cousin, supposedly just visiting from Seoul to mend a broken heart. Quiet, thoughtful, and unexpectedly funny, Jihoon is kindness and chaos wrapped in one dangerously charming package. Ari tries to ignore him. She fails. Spectacularly.

What begins as a harmless connection spirals into something Ari never planned for―and when Jihoon’s real identity makes headlines, Ari is thrust into a global spotlight that threatens everything she’s worked for.

Suddenly, the woman who had all the answers is questioning everything. Who is she beneath the ambition? And who does she want to be when the world is watching?"
