In this prequel to Book II of the series: It's been thirty years since Angie saw Doug as a fresh faced eighteen-year-old.. Thirty years since he walked out, saying he "just couldn't" be with her anymore. No explanation, just gone. And now here he was, three decades later. The old feelings come surging back -- tempered with the sharp pain of remembered abandonment. Had thirty years changed Doug -- changed her -- enough that they could try again?
