Missing My Ex. The Dating Series, #3

Nina does not want her ex back. She is almost completely sure about that. What she wants is something simpler. A man who makes actual plans. Shows up when he says he will. Uses complete sentences. Maybe even owns a calendar. At thirty-three, Nina is tired of dating men who treat "you up?" like a romantic opening, so she changes her dating-app settings and starts meeting men who seem older, calmer, and far more put together.
There's the attorney who thinks she would fit perfectly into his already organized life. The chef who turns dinner into a retrospective of his greatest hits. The man who is refreshingly normal. The one who says all the right things. The one who makes every decision for her. And the genuinely decent man Nina may simply not know how to get close to. None of them is quite the problem. The problem is that every new conversation starts from zero.
Who Tasha is. Why her cat is named Miso. Why she orders fries without ketchup and steals someone else's anyway. Why after a brutal day at the salon, food needs to come before questions. Her ex already knew all of that. And somewhere between another first date, an old message thread, and two dangerous little words typed but never sent, Nina has to figure out what she actually misses. Missing My Ex is a funny, emotionally honest contemporary women's fiction novella about modern dating, old relationships, and the strange difference between missing someone and wanting them back.
