Lauren left her hometown twelve years ago, and hasn't seen any of her friends for ten years now. Since she had last seen them, a lot of things had changed in their lives. She's had two children, plenty of break ups, and a lot of disappointments in life.
Thinking she had nothing left for her in New York, Lauren takes her two children with her and moves back to the Tempe, Arizona, where she realizes that the feelings she thought had died long ago has actually just been dormant for the last two decades.
Now, Lauren finds herself struggling to suppress all the questions left unanswered decades ago, and resisting to give into her feelings towards her best friend-all while she's trying to find herself and fit back into her old life.

FINDING OUR WAY BACK
Avalon has the good look, good grades, friends, three wonderful brothers, caring and loving parents. Everyone would think she has everything, and that was probably true a few years ago.

Between nightmares, panic attacks, insomnia, and more, she starts hating this town she cherishes so much and everything that brings her memories. That's why she decided to leave and never come back again, at least until she is in a better state. After three years in France, she is back in her childhood town and decided that she will chase away her demons for good. She knows that she can't do it alone, she needs her family and her friends. And perhaps she will find peace and maybe more with the most unexpected person for her. *** "You're important to me, V. You're my first everything, and I don't want anyone else."
