When Cooper Dahl teased Molly Larsen about whether she remembered their teenage passions, she flippantly forestalled indulging his need to know by saying the answer would be in her memoir. Cooper pressed for a signed copy, and now she had trapped herself into actually writing about her feelings about their secret high school attractions because even when joking, her word was her bond. Molly produced a six page account of how she considered him the unrequited love of her life. Her second mistake was giving him the confession. What happens next is unexpected, joyous, and devastating. Life intervenes as much now as it did long ago, and their reconnection is anything but smooth and consistent, leading her to appreciate her best friend Jaçon's care and counsel more than ever.
