From the united states Today bestselling writer of Fisher’s Light comes a ‘heartbreaking and hopeful’ (AL Jackson) standalone romance about first love and second chances.

How much may a man take before he breaks?

1,843 days. That’s how long I survived in that hellhole. They tried to break me, but I resisted. And I owe everything to the memory space of warm summer evenings, the scent of peaches, and the main one woman who treasured me a lot more than I ever deserved to become loved. Right now, I’ll perform anything to get back to her.

Just Shelby Eubanks isn’t the girl I left behind all those years back. She’s someone else, a stranger. My Shelby-my small green-eyed firecracker-would hardly ever give up her dreams, would never disappear into her mother’s ambitions. But I won’t give up on her. On us. I may be damaged, and scarred, and not the person I utilized to be, but I will do whatever it takes to remind her from the story of us.
