In Northvale, Vermont, appearances are everything-and silence is safer than truth. Riley swore she'd never go back. After Grace ghosted her the week she left, after the countless moments under the train bridge where Riley told her best friend, Grace, that she loved her, and Grace said nothing. She moved weeks later and never heard from Grace again. Northvale became a place Riley only carried in memory-a place that hurt. Years later, Riley is building a life far from it all in Chicago.

And standing face-to-face with Grace Whitmore's parents-who, with haunting familiarity, invite her to stay in Grace's house. The place where she practically grew up. Grace has spent the last seven years trying to forget. Forget how she froze. Forget how she let Riley leave.

As the two women are forced to navigate a shared home, buried feelings resurface-and so do the forces that drove them apart.
