It brings to the forefront a contemporary romance in the form of the life story of Emma Blair, who is deeply in love with her husband, Jess-an adventurer and fellow travel enthusiast. An instant tragic turn takes the apparently idyllic life of the couple through Jess’s disappearance in a helicopter accident while exploring the world. With tears drying up over the years, trying to let go, Emma found comfort in her hometown with the warmth within its walls and rebuilt her life.
She eventually encounters an old friend named Sam, who guides her toward healing and finding joy again. As Emma moves toward intimacy with Sam, she’s forced to confront lingering feelings for Jess and the life she had with him. By the time Emma believes she can finally leave all this behind and have a future with Sam, Jess arrives-many months after his ordeal.
Between her former love and her newfound happiness, Emma has to choose between love, loyalty, and the nature of true love. The novel plots the themes of love, loss, and complexities as it handles the feelings of Emma for both men and the lives they represent.

Ultimately, this is a very powerful and thought-provoking novel in Reid’s signature style that brings the reader along with Emma on her journey of discovery that love can be either one person or a multitude of people.
