Synopsis

Lovemaking. Heartbreaking. Soul-shaking. Is their marriage worth saving? For twenty years, Jayne Prescott has done everything right. Built a career she loves, raised two kids, and kept her marriage to Rhys, one of Baltimore’s top cardiac surgeons, from flatlining under the weight of his ambition. She’s the glue that holds everyone together…until the day she overhears Rhys confiding in a female colleague that his wife doesn’t appreciate him and that home feels like hell. Shattered, Jayne fears the marriage she’s fought so hard to protect may already be gone. She wants to save it, but she’s tired of pouring pieces of herself into something that only seems to take. For Rhys, the wake-up call is swift and brutal. Confronted with how much he’s taken for granted—and how far he’s drifted from the man he meant to be—he does the unthinkable: he takes a sabbatical from surgery to rebuild the life he nearly broke. Now, with roles reversed and emotions running high, Jayne and Rhys must relearn what partnership truly means. Between school pickups, burnt dinners, and old wounds resurfacing, they navigate the messy, beautiful work of rediscovering a love that never disappeared—it just lost its way. Don’t Let Go is a Modern Vintage Romance, delivering all the sweeping emotion of classic Mills & Boon with a fresh, modern, and steamy twist.
