Erica Ruffin and Clyde Glasper knew they had a once-in-a-lifetime type of love—one that sizzled under the electric beats of an Atlanta college block party and would burn hot and long after they reached their destinations as STEM professionals. They were destined to be a power couple, until they weren’t.
Nearly twenty-five years later, life has left its mark on both. Divorce. Children. Sickness. Betrayal. Erica, now a director of an artificial intelligence education center, has learned hard life lessons that leave little room for self-care and love. Clyde, a guidance counselor, has sacrificed his marriage and career trajectory to be a caregiver.
When life forces their paths to cross again in the heart of rural Alabama—brought together by Erica’s new job—it’s more than a reunion. It’s unfinished business. The fire remains. That undeniable attraction. But so are the unresolved issues. Erica’s fear of being vulnerable in love battles against Clyde’s pain of being rejected again. And neither of them are the gullible kids they once were.
With past wounds at the surface of their interactions, is love enough for Erica and Clyde to give each other a second chance? Or will history prove that some relationships are meant to stay in the past?
