Albert 'AJ' Young never thought he would step foot in New York City again. There were too many memories, good and bad, but mostly the reminder of the woman he loved and the woman he lost.
After a frantic call tears down the new life he's built for himself, Albert leaves London and steps back into NYC, back into his memories, and back to Skylar Shaw. He was only 24 when they met and shared a passion like no other he's experienced since. She was set in her ways, unabashedly confident in her independence and sexuality, and also over thirteen years older than him.
There was nothing that would make him leave her, so he thought. Too many heartbreaks, too many forces trying to tear them apart. Now Albert must face his past and face the pain before he can really move on with his life. Most of all, he must face Skylar.
