Life has put Ruby Ho through the wringer many times, but she's determined to start fresh in New York and pursue her dream of being a photographer. When her former crush-turned-model comes to town for business, Ruby finds her old wounds opened up. Though perhaps they had never healed at all.

With Ezra Tomerov around, Ruby is terrified to confront the pain of the past that she tried to outrun. But as they grow closer, she starts to realize that maybe she has the power to find happiness on her own terms.

In "Affection, Always," Mars Andrews crafts a moving and authentic story of self-discovery and self-actualization in the wake of trauma. With vivid descriptions of modern-day New York and complex, relatable characters like Ruby, this novel is sure to resonate with readers of all ages who are looking for a heartfelt tale of healing and empowerment.
