Should Have Never (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781684986125)

Some secrets are to be taken to the grave, but what if they start crawling out?

Preeti Singh and Madison Kenner--two contrasting personalities, strangers--knit together into chaos after an encounter at the graveyard with the rather eccentric Meredith Lesley, who doesn't exist legally.

After the encounter, Meredith vanishes into thin air as if she never existed.

Her mysterious disappearance is followed by the delivery of two red parcels at the doorsteps of Madison and Preeti with each other's names. The unsaid truths of the past and their biggest secrets seek them, objectified as the contents in the box. Both of them are shaken up--someone had been stalking them through the years.

Not everything inside the box made sense until a fire breaks out in the neighborhood and a corpse is rendered faceless at the porch.

These series of traumatizing events draw Preeti and her arrogant and demanding boss closer, and strings are attached while Madison cuts all the strings of the toxic relationship with her abusive fiance all while tolerating her family.

Between finding the whos and the whys, the duo stumbles upon an insignificant boarding pass of a flight that crashed in 1996 in the name of Madison's father. Confusion and paranoia wreck their minds--what could possibly connect the present to the death of Madison's father?

With still no signs of the uncanny woman who had dragged them into this mess by an unfortunate play of fate, things hit rock bottom when an evening in goes wrong and Madison is abducted and Preeti almost dies.

While desperately searching for Madison, Preeti gets a visit from an unwelcome visitor who holds all the answers to throw their existences in turmoil.

It's not a secret, no--it's a chain of lies, betrayal, and sins.

Will they be suffocated by the lies, or will they make it out alive? Who is behind the series of planned tragedies plotted so intricately?

And the question that begs to be answered--where the hell is Meredith Lesley?
