"Tom kissed me like it meant something. And then woke up like it didn't. That's the story, isn't it? Mine always end in rewrites."
*
Tom Blyth is charming, reckless, and every bit the rising star he was born to be. Lane Harper is his best friend - sharp, steady, and quietly nursing a heartbreak she never meant to confess. They were always just friends... until one night in London changed everything.
Now, a year later, they're barely speaking. She's back in Ohio, waiting tables and hiding from a dream that fell apart. He's in New York, shining brighter than ever - except when he's thinking about her.
When their old friends orchestrate a surprise reunion across England, Tom and Lane are forced back into each other's orbit - with nothing but shared memories, unresolved tension, and a road trip full of awkward silences between them. But in every city they visit, old wounds start to heal. Conversations get deeper. The truth gets harder to ignore.
And somewhere between beach sunsets, missed concerts, and tearful confrontations, they begin to ask:
What if the best thing they ever had started with a mistake?
A slow-burn, second-chance romance about timing, self-worth, and learning that sometimes the hardest person to forgive... is the one who mattered most.
Perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Sally Rooney.
