“...a searing story of love lost and love regained.”
~ Mary Jo Putney, New York Times best-selling author

“Mary Kirk writes emotionally powerful tales of life and love and human nature.”
~ Patricia Rice, award-winning, best-selling author

With their life-long love to sustain them, Nathan and Laurel married, dreaming of a future filled with all good things. Then, to finish medical school, Nathan was forced to pursue the transient naval career that Laurel’s unhappy childhood had taught her to despise. For ten years, she tried to let go of her desperate longing for a home with a white picket fence that she lived with long enough to paint—all the while Nathan tried in every way he could to persuade her that their love was all they’d ever need to be happy. Neither succeeded. Anger and resentment finally came to a boil, and their marriage ended, each believing their love was dead.

Three silent years later, a chance meeting teaches them that they were wrong. They’ve tried to move on with their separate lives, Nathan as one of the Navy’s top surgeons and trauma specialists, Laurel in a high-level position with the State Department, both pursuing stressful careers that have earned them respect and admiration—but precious little happiness. Neither of them has been able to let go of the one thing they both always wanted most in the world: to be together. But with Nathan still in the Navy and Laurel still yearning for a permanent home filled with happy babies, how can there be a second chance for them? Are they doomed to live separate, loveless lives forever? Or do they dare risk the agony of loving—and losing—again?

“Mary Kirk writes classic romance at its best.”
~ Rebecca York, New York Times best-selling author

“A very tender, sweet story.... Keep a tissue close for this one.”
~ Rendezvous Magazine
