Disappoint Me
By Nicola Dinan

Max is 30 years old and dissatisfied. The best years of her life were spent on crippling dysphoria and annoying exes. But after she falls down the stairs at a New Year's Eve party, she vows to make some changes. And she’s starting with trying for some classic heteronormativity.

Vincent seems to be the perfect answer. Though his coworkers, friends, and Chinese parents never imagined he would date a trans woman, Vincent seems to truly care about Max in a way she’d always thought was pure fantasy. But he’s got some hefty baggage of his own.

In the fall-out of a decades-old entanglement, Max must figure out the true meaning of forgiveness. Ultimately, she must decide if people can be more than their worst moments, and if one can truly make peace with the past.
