What if the one who got away became the one you can't have?

Rachel Koslow thought she'd outrun her past by choosing the safe path--marriage, kids, and a life that would make her traditional Polish Catholic family proud. Now divorced with two children and hosting her parents' golden anniversary celebration, Rachel's carefully constructed world tilts on its axis when her brother arrives with his new girlfriend: Alex Ardin, the magnetic writer who once swept Rachel into a passionate affair many years ago.

As old sparks reignite and long-buried feelings surface, Rachel faces an impossible choice: maintain the façade of the dutiful daughter or finally embrace the truth of who she is--even if it means upending her entire family in the process.

Sometimes the most daring love story is the one you write for yourself.
