How I Ruined My Boyfriend

From the back cover

For six years, Amelia has put her life on hold for Ethan, supporting him after his failed startup and pinching every penny toward their first home. Then he tells her she is cheap, that anyone could do what she does, and that she cannot compare to Helen, the ex who once dumped him for being broke and has now returned. When Amelia finally tells him to do whatever he wants and walks out, she calls her boss, Ms. Davenport, and accepts the overseas promotion she had turned down for him.

But Ethan will not let her leave quietly. Helen stages scenes in their apartment, and when a folder of engagement-party paperwork falls at her feet, Ethan demands an apology and tears the documents to shreds. Days later, with the engagement over, he calls Amelia for the first time, asking where she is.
