Rain on Chrome

What happens when everything you've worked for stops feeling like enough?Mira Chen has it all-a prestigious position at a top Seattle law firm, the respect of her colleagues, and a partnership track that promises everything she's supposed to want. But standing in the rain at yet another gallery opening, champagne in hand and emptiness in her chest, she realizes she's been performing a life instead of living one.
Then she meets Kai Nakamura. A gifted motorcycle restoration expert who walked away from a corporate engineering career to pursue craft over status, Kai sees through Mira's polished exterior to the woman beneath-uncertain, yearning, brave enough to question everything but terrified of what the answers might mean. One conversation in the rain. One honest moment. One choice that changes everything. As Mira begins to dismantle the carefully constructed life that's slowly suffocating her, Kai becomes both catalyst and companion-challenging her assumptions, supporting her transformation, and showing her that meaningful work doesn't require martyrdom.
But choosing authenticity over expectation means disappointing everyone who believed in the old Mira, including herself. Can she build a life that honors both ambition and joy? Can she do work that matters without sacrificing everything else? And can love survive when both people are still becoming who they're meant to be?Rain on Chrome is a sophisticated contemporary romance about: Finding the courage to rebuild your life in your thirties The messy, beautiful work of choosing yourself Sustainable passion vs.
