Ava's life is a study in damage control. She's kept her fractured family from falling apart, held secrets tighter than scars, and loved a man who was never really hers. When her alcoholic mother disappears-again-just days after leaving rehab, Ava spirals. And in her lowest moment, it's him who shows up: her ex, the one who still has a key. The one who knew her before she knew herself. The one with a girlfriend. What follows is a tangle of guilt, grief, and longing. As they navigate the wreckage of fifteen years of almost-love, Ava must decide whether two people can ever truly meet-when they've spent their whole lives running parallel. He was never supposed to come back. But maybe this time, they'll collide.
