Logan's perfectly ordered life implodes when a shocking adoption revelation sends him spiraling, forcing him to question everything he thought he knew about himself—including his marriage to Salem, which crumbled under the weight of secrets and lies. When the universe throws them back together in Colorado, neither can deny the undeniable pull between them, even as they've both transformed into people the other barely recognizes. As Logan and Salem navigate the wreckage of what they were and what they've become, they'll discover that sometimes the only way forward is to let go of who you're supposed to be and embrace who you actually are. This is a gorgeously complex second-chance romance about identity, vulnerability, and finding your way back to someone—or perhaps, finding your way to someone entirely new.
