chapter 3: Kinn takes everyone on a forest hike. It goes poorly.

“And on the verge of meeting his inevitable death, Pete curses Kinn and his stupid high difficulty route. No, he curses Porsche for choosing to marry someone like Kinn, who’d choose a high difficulty trail in the middle of nowhere in the first place when there are literally a million other things to do on the island, like animal sanctuaries, and pools, and restaurants, and beaches and many others that Pete will never get to enjoy in this lifetime just because his eyes were glued on his goddamn work e-mails instead of what was right in front of him—

A hand shoots out and grabs him at the last second.

Pete’s exhale punches out of his lungs. He’s right over the edge of the footpath, sole driving painfully into the soil. The fingers clutch at his hand, and Pete’s eyes shoot up to meet Vegas Theerapanyakul’s.

Of course.

Of fucking course it would be Vegas catching him.

Pete contemplates throwing himself back into the ravine.”

☀️ summary:

Pete has long left Thailand. He is now living the American dream, working long hours to make his rich clients richer and himself more miserable than ever.

But when his best friend Porsche invites him to his destination wedding to the mysterious Kinn, Pete finds himself suddenly thrown into the world of the Theerapanyakul family, the silent machinations underpinning their wealth, and Kinn’s cousin Vegas—who, for reasons unknown, has made it his mission to tear down every assumption Pete holds about his life.
