The Softest GoodBye
The Softest Goodbye
By Alexis Cullen
Debut Romance
A breathtaking debut about first heartbreak, second chances, and the soft strength it takes to finally choose yourself.
Ariana never expected to see Mateo again—the boy who once made her believe in forever—on a solo trip to Spain. Their connection is magnetic. When he invites her to meet in Paris, it feels like fate. But what begins as a reunion quickly reopens old wounds, familiar patterns, and love that still asks her to wait.
Then she meets Daniel—an intentional, grounded man who offers Ariana something new: peace without performance. For the first time, she's not chasing love. She's being chosen by it.
Set across Europe and New York City, The Softest Goodbye is a lyrical, slow-burning love story that explores the space between longing and letting go. With poetic prose and raw emotional depth, Alexis Cullen's unforgettable debut reminds us that the most powerful love stories are the ones where we choose ourselves first.
Perfect for readers who love:
• Emotionally intelligent romance
• Black & Indigenous women reclaiming their power
• Travel romance with poetic prose
• Seven Days in June, Before I Let Go, and Open Water
