For three years, she tracked every time her husband, Blake, chose his first love, Ariana, over her in a black journal—a 100-point divorce plan. When the score reached zero, she would walk away.
The final points disappeared the night she lay bleeding after a car crash, eight weeks pregnant with the child they had prayed for. In the ER, nurses called the star surgeon of the hospital—her husband.

No Second Chances, Blake Chapter 1
For three years, I documented the slow death of my marriage in a black journal. It was my 100-point divorce plan: for every time my husband, Blake, chose his first love, Ariana, over me, I deducted points. When the score hit zero, I would leave.
The final points vanished the night he left me bleeding out from a car crash. I was eight weeks pregnant with the child we had prayed for.
In the ER, the nurses frantically called him-the star surgeon of the very hospital I was dying in.
"Dr. Santos, we have a Jane Doe, O-negative, bleeding out. She's pregnant, and we're about to lose them both. We need you to authorize an emergency blood transfer."
His voice came over the speaker, cold and impatient.
"I can't. My priority is Miss Whitfield. Do what you can for the patient, but I can't divert anything right now."
He hung up. He condemned his own child to death to ensure his ex-girlfriend had resources on standby after a minor procedure.
Chapter 1
Blake Santos never expected to find the notebook.
He was searching for his favorite platinum cufflinks, a gift from his father, in the back of the shared closet. His fingers brushed against a leather-bound journal tucked away in a shoebox, hidden behind Caroline' s winter boots. It wasn't hers; her journals were always brightly colored, filled with architectural sketches. This one was plain black. Curiosity, a rare emotion for him, took hold. He opened it.
The first page was titled in Caroline' s neat, precise handwriting: The 100-Point Divorce Plan.
Blake frowned. He read the rules written below.
Starting Points: 100.
For every action that proves this marriage is a mistake, points will be deducted.
When the score reaches zero, I will file for divorce. No exceptions.
He let out a short, humorless laugh. A game. It had to be some silly game his wife was playing. He flipped through the pages. Each entry was dated, a meticulous log of his supposed transgressions.
-1 Point: He forgot our anniversary. Again. He was having dinner with Ariana.
-2 Points: He canceled our vacation because Ariana' s dog was sick. He spent the weekend at her apartment.
-1 Point: He called me Ariana by mistake.
-3 Points: He bought the last bottle of a vintage wine I' d been searching for, only to give it to Ariana for her birthday.
The list went on, page after page. A detailed, painful chronicle of his neglect. Blake felt a flicker of annoyance, not guilt. He saw it not as a record of his failures, but as a testament to Caroline' s obsession with his friendship with Ariana Whitfield. Ariana was his first love, the one who had shattered him when she left years ago.
Caroline knew that. He had married Caroline on the rebound, a convenient, stable choice from a good family, a person who could manage the Santos household while he focused on his career and, if he was honest, nursed his broken heart.
