The Table
About this audiobook
Philip always thought he knew what he wanted in a woman—beauty, ambition, class, and the kind of success that could match his. At 34, with a thriving career and a luxury apartment, he wasn’t looking for love—he was looking for compatibility, strategy, and a woman who could bring something to the table.
Naomi gave him loyalty, peace, and love—but she wasn’t “enough.” Vanessa had the prestige, the wealth, the sharp edges—but she didn’t tolerate being evaluated like an asset. Now, both women have moved on… and Philip is left behind.
But when he sees Naomi again—glowing, fulfilled, and in love with someone else—something inside him unravels. Regret turns into obsession. What if she was the one, and he threw her away? As Philip starts watching her social posts, showing up “accidentally” at her favorite places, and trying to insert himself into her new life, the line between longing and control blurs.
This isn’t just a story about what love brings to the table. It’s about what happens when pride won’t let go—and what a man might risk when he realizes too late that love was never something to measure… but something to protect.
Until it’s gone. For good.
