When the love of his life dies in battle, Dimitri has to learn to cope. But can he look past his grief to move on without her?

With no hope of rescue, Dimitri only has one phone call he needs to make.

UPDATE: Since the author has been out of touch with this story, she has decided to re-write it with added scenes. This version will be posted separately, under the title: "These are the Best Years of Your Life." Please feel free to read this version, but be aware that no updates will be added. When Abe Mazur purchased a group of flats so that Rose and Lissa could room together in college, Dimitri never dreamed he'd be offered a spot rooming with Christian. He also didn't anticipate the tension between himself and Rose, but after what happened over the summer, what else could he expect?

Dimitri is tired of waiting on the guardians to make a decision. He knows Rose went to Spokane after Mason, and she could need his help. What he doesn't know is that his life—and Rose's—are about to change forever.

Rose and Dimitri have made it through everything, even death couldn't keep them apart. Now it's time for them to start a life together, but with all the happiness comes a few bumps along the way.
