When Gabe, a flourishing actor who is finally getting his shot at the big times, receives a phone call alerting him that his estranged father has been given only months to live, he is forced to return to his small town to say his goodbyes. Only, goodbyes are never easy, and he is torn between his roots and the new life he has worked so hard to create when he sees just how bad off his father is--just how badly he needs him. The decision is only complicated by a new friendship and the return of a life-long love, one he thought he would never have to face again. *This novel is dedicated to the very loving memory of my father, Joe, a man who taught me love without condition, and faith without doubt. A man who continues to inspire me, and thought that I could move mountains if only I wanted it bad enough. He still lives where he always has--in my heart, and I will forever carry the lessons he gave me. This one's for you, daddy. I love you.
