How To End A Love Story, by Yulin Kuang (Author)

For thirteen years since a tragic incident intertwined their fates, Helen Zhang hasn't crossed paths with Grant Shepard even once.

Now a celebrated author, Helen channels her all into her writing career. Securing a coveted spot in the writers' room for the TV adaptation of her bestselling young adult novels, she wrestles with imposter syndrome and battles writer's block, hoping that success in her profession will bring stability to her life. Los Angeles offers her a fresh start where she's unknown. But there's a catch...

Grant has diligently built a new life on the opposite coast, determined to leave the past behind. Despite grappling with lingering panic attacks, he's well-regarded as a screenwriter in town. Taking the job on Helen's show seems unwise, yet the opportunity it presents for his own projects is irresistible.

Meeting again, Grant remains the charming, humorous, and beloved figure Helen remembers, while she appears just as brilliant, beautiful, and reserved as he recalls. However, collaborating proves messy and exhilarating, especially with Helen's parents, who still resent Grant, unaware of his involvement.

As hidden truths emerge, they confront the reality that their story wasn't destined to be a love tale. Yet, finding solace in their shared past and present might offer the key to reconciling with themselves and their history.
