Overview

Twenty years. Three thousand miles. One unforgettable love. Barbara Dutton has built the perfect life - - or so it seems. A successful emergency room doctor in Boston, a beautiful apartment, a carefully controlled existence. But when her marriage crumbles and her teenage daughter begins to spiral, Barbara realizes perfection isn't the same as happiness. Victor Morrison never left their California hometown. The promising artist became a high school art teacher, pouring his passion into his students while nursing a broken heart. For twenty years, he's been painting the same face, loving the same ghost, unable to let go of the girl who got away. When their twenty-year high school reunion brings them face to face again, Barbara and Victor must confront the choice they made at eighteen - - the choice that tore them apart. As old feelings resurface and new possibilities emerge, they're forced to ask: Can you really go home again? Can love survive two decades of silence? And is it ever too late for a second chance? A sweeping, emotional journey about the roads not taken, the loves we never forget, and the courage it takes to rewrite your own story. An achingly beautiful tale of love lost and found.
