A spell-binding tale of true love and postponed romance. High school seniors Maggie Pearson and Eric Severson were first-time lovers and swore they would be together always. Then college intervened and fate gave them different lives from the one they envisioned on those summer nights in 1965.
Twenty years later, Maggie's husband is killed in an airplane crash, leaving her in Seattle with a college age daughter, enough insurance money to make her independent, and an empty future. Until she decides to move back to her hometown of Door County, Wisconsin.
A truly heartwarming story of two people finding each other again.
(I LOVED it and didn't want it to end!)
