Jump back in with Josh and Abby, whose paths have been woven together again. The stakes have gotten higher, and the risks are all too real, making their unabating need for one another more impossible than before. Married and pregnant Abigail Bouchard spent years believing that her tragic experience with adolescent love came at a price too steep to pay a second time. Her new husband symbolizes a stability that she requires in order to be the mother she needs to be - whether she's ready for that responsibility or not.Josh agreed to stay in Halifax for Abby's sister, Grace, but the impact of his return to the sisters' family home is unavoidably certain to stir up familiar emotions far too powerful to ignore. "It wasn't the first time they had danced around the topic. It had remained below the surface, cleverly tucked away, only alluded to at most. Him spending so much time with her. Her being married. Her being pregnant. Him still painfully in love with her. Her doing her best to pretend that she didn't feel the exact same way about him. They joked about it. They acted like it wasn't true. They were actors in a TV show or players in a play. How very hip and unbothered they all were to take part in this comedy of errors and not become burdened by real feelings."Josh and Abby are consequently positioned on the edge of a well-known temptation. Time has made them older, though their circumstances continue to force them apart. Will the vow that Abby made to love another man diminish the feelings for Josh she's been fighting against for years? Or will the lure of her first love be too enticing to oppose?

2024 2nd EDITION RELEASE* Prepare to fall in love with Joshua Stone and Abigail Conrad as they attempt to confront the impossible circumstances that relentlessly prevent them from loving one another... "He gulped the remainder of his third drink that he'd ordered against better judgment. What was better judgment on a night like tonight? That ship had sailed hours ago. It's possible it sailed the day he first kissed an innocent girl in a quiet corner of her home, then proceeded to fall in love with her every day afterward." Abigail and Grace Conrad are teenage sisters who find themselves suddenly orphaned. When Grace's slightly older boyfriend, Josh, moves in with the girls to help transition them into a parentless reality, the underlying feelings that Josh and Abby have been burying for years (for good reason) unavoidably resurface. Set amidst Atlantic Canada's sprawling city by the sea, just before the social media era, these three individuals must openly navigate their feelings, and each other, in a delicate dance that makes implosion seem inevitable. Abby is repeatedly forced to decide between loyalty to her sister and her desire for Josh. Despite Josh's new willingness to pursue his feelings for the Conrad sister he really wants, Abby is left hopelessly mindful of the facets of their lives that continuously steer them apart. *Second Edition includes impactful edits, an accompanying playlist, as well as insightful chapter illustrations.
