Can true love strike twice? Discover the answer in John Fishwick’s debut novel. Though widower Jeremy Rowlands and widow Stephanie Marks are perfectly content to live their lives as mature singles, a chance meeting during vacation leads to possibilities neither has imagined.
When Jeremy, an astronomy professor, loses his wife in a tragic car accident, he leaps at the opportunity to spend three weeks in the United Kingdom to clear his head. Meanwhile, retired English teacher Stephanie embarks on a solo trip abroad to visit the historic homes of her favorite British authors.
After enjoying long conversations during a shared flight, they decide to become traveling companions. Their adventure together begins upon landing and each excursion deepens the bond, ultimately leading to a tentative friendship that both challenges and electrifies them. As they roam the English countryside each visiting sites on their travel itineraries, they engage in lively debates on the roles of literature, art, and science, as well as Jeremy's quest to discover how astronomy, geology, and evolution (AGE) fit into the meaning of life. During their travels Jeremy and Stephanie forge an increasingly meaningful bond. But their budding friendship forces them both to confront whether it is truly possible to love once again.
