About this title

Synopsis

"You built a machine that tells people they've found love. When's the last time you felt it?"

Priya Anand has spent years turning human connection into something measurable.

As co-founder of a wildly successful compatibility platform, she knows how people behave, what they click, how long they wait before replying, and which patterns predict lasting connection. Her numbers are excellent. Her company is thriving. By every visible metric, she has built exactly the life she intended.

So why does it feel like she disappeared somewhere inside it?

When Priya makes a decision that shocks everyone-including herself-she steps away from the dashboards, deletes the systems she built, and finds herself in a life with no roadmap: quiet mornings, unfinished shelves, birdwatching before sunrise, awkward spin classes, hardware stores that smell like cedar, and long stretches of uncertainty she can't optimize away.

Then she keeps running into Rue Calloway.

Rue notices things. Birds by wingbeat. Wood grain by touch. The exact tool someone needs before they ask for it. She moves through the world with patience Priya doesn't understand and certainty she can't imitate. Their conversations begin as corrections and observations, then become arguments, routines, quiet companionship, and something neither of them seems interested in naming too quickly.

But Priya has spent years believing love works best when it's efficient, explainable, and designed to succeed.

What happens when she meets someone who makes her want to stop measuring-and start paying attention?

Every Time I Turn Around is a slow-burn literary contemporary romance about ambition, reinvention, chosen family, starting over in your thirties, and discovering that some of life's most important questions were never meant to have perfect answers.
