He lost his wife. Now he's face-to-face with the family who took her from him.
After his wife's sudden death, Ed Gideon survives by keeping life simple-his work, his two daughters, and the walls he's built around his grief. But everything changes the night he meets Bobbi Love.
She's fifteen. And she's the daughter of the drunk driver who killed his wife. When Bobbi's mother lies in a coma after an intentional overdose, Ed is pulled into a situation he never imagined-helping the very family that shattered his own. Torn between compassion and resentment, he must decide whether to walk away... or confront the pain he's spent two years trying to bury.
At the same time, unexpected desire enters his life-complicating everything he thought he understood about love, loyalty, and moving on. As past and present collide, Ed must face a question he's avoided for far too long: Can you heal from loss... without first forgiving it?
A powerful novel of grief, guilt, and the fragile, complicated nature of love.
