From the international bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners comes an unmissable story of love and hope.

The heart may hide, but it never forgets.

THEN

At thirteen you were my first real friend. At fifteen you were my first love, at eighteen you were my everything. We were about to take on the world together, until one mistake shattered our future.

NOW

I'm about to marry a safe man who will never touch my heart, whose loss would never break me. He doesn't really need me, and that's how I like it. Until one day I turned around in a coffee shop and there you were. It's been eleven years and nothing has changed. I don't know how to forgive you and worse, I don't know if I can resist you.

Loving you nearly destroyed me, but losing you again is unthinkable. Am I brave enough to risk it all?
