A nostalgic second-chance romance that takes you back to Spring Break 2006, when flip phones were everywhere, Facebook was still only for college students, and long-distance calls lasted for hours, but only after nine. When falling for someone seven hours away meant waiting all day just to hear their voice.

Second chance - friends to lovers - slow burn - long-distance romance - 2000s nostalgia - found family - patient MMC - dual POV - no third-act breakup

Avery expected one last carefree week with her best friends before graduation.

She didn't expect Bryce.

A few days on the beach turn into more than a year of late-night phone calls, inside jokes, and wishing seven hours didn't stand between them.

Until one day, he disappears. Proving what Avery has always feared: eventually, everyone leaves.

Nine years later, Avery has built a life that keeps her moving. Then a new travel nursing contract puts her in Bryce's hometown, and a freak accident brings him straight into her ER.

Suddenly, the boy who disappeared without an explanation is standing in front of her again, and the past Avery thought she'd made peace with doesn't look quite the way she remembers it.

Friendship is all she's willing to offer. But soon they're falling into old rhythms, making new memories, and discovering that nine years apart didn't erase nearly as much as Avery thought it had.

What happens when the person who once felt like home suddenly walks back into your life, and you discover the story you've told yourself about losing them wasn't true?
