Their connection was electric, and they thought it was forever. Twenty years later, Gen is an Olympic runner, the career she strived for, while Emily is living a picture-perfect life: Manhattan townhouse, two young children and a wealthy husband, Jack. But Jack's controlling behaviour is spiralling, and Emily has lost sight of who she once was. Now, despite Emily's fracturing marriage and the pressures of Gen's career, they are drawn back together by a magnetic attraction. After years of heartbreak, missed chances and misunderstandings, will they finally get a second chance at first love? _________________________________________________________________________ 'AN IMMERSIVE, GLAMOROUS, SEXY AND GRIPPING MODERN LOVE STORY TO GULP DOWN HUNGRILY AND QUICKLY' SUNDAY TIMES 'SLIPS DOWN AS EASILY AS OYSTERS AND CHAMPAGNE' DAILY MAIL 'A TENDER ROMANCE' WOMAN & HOME 'IMMERSIVE AND INSIGHTFUL' LISA OWENS, AUTHOR OF NOT WORKING AND NATURAL DISASTER 'AN EXQUISITELY TENDER PORTRAYAL OF ENDURING LOVE' OBSERVER 'A GORGEOUSLY WRITTEN LOVE STORY' GOOD HOUSEKEEPING 'HAD ME HOOKED FROM THE FIRST PAGE' JENNIE GODFREY, AUTHOR OF THE LIST OF SUSPICIOUS THINGS 'PROFOUNDLY MOVING' EMILY ST.
