The act of loving in return. It is distinguished from most other words about love in that it is one of the few that specifies reciprocity.
Years after Harry Styles left behind the love of his life, Holland Becker, for an opportunity in America, his heart remains tethered to her.
It's been five years, and Harry is now a divorced, single father, raising his daughter, Ivy, back in London. He unexpectedly crosses paths with Holland-the woman he never truly stopped loving, even during his marriage to someone else.
As fate would have it, his resentful ex wife returns, determined to reclaim him and Ivy. Meanwhile, Holland is hardened, harboring resentment towards Harry for leaving all those years ago.
Can Harry mend his relationship with Holland? Will she find it in herself to forgive him, or will their reunion lead to further heartbreak and despair?
The thing about your first love is that even after it destroys you and you hide it away in the back of your closet, behind your old high school yearbooks and your winter sweaters, you can't quite forget about it. You pull it out every once in a while and turn it over in your hands and let it take you back to another time and place, Kensington Gardens in a thunderstorm, Oxford Circus at Christmas, the hottest spring day the city's ever seen.
And you feel it. Frozen fingers and a sunburned nose and wet hair sticking to your face, and you know that being over it is harder than it seems.
