Where does love go when there’s no longer anybody there to receive it?
It goes nowhere, I realise.
It’s just... there.
Waiting for him to come back.
At eleven, Poppy Nicholls knew Logan Thomas-Novak was her best friend. At sixteen, she knew he would always be more. They shared everything together, including a passion for music. Now, at twenty-nine, he’s a stranger with shared memories – memories that once glimmered like the lake she used to visit but now tries to forget.
She’s gone seven years of no contact with him. Seven years of shoving the thought of him down to where it hurts the least while he’s rose to musical stardom. So when he shows up outside her house one catastrophic afternoon, it shouldn’t feel like only yesterday when he sang into her ear with no one around.
The man who was once everything to her, the best years of her life, became the only man capable of breaking her heart.
Now that he’s back, can she give him the second chance he’s asking for?
