    Dylan Brennan has the corner office. The marriage. The five children. The life everyone sees and calls complete. So why does the laughter sound like it's coming from slightly too far away? At fifty-eight he has everything he spent thirty years building. He is not unhappy. He is finished. And for a man who has never stopped moving, finished is the worst thing to be. Then a woman named Riley walks into his life and for the first time in thirty years his mind goes quiet. For eleven months he is more alive than he has been in years. But she was never the answer. She was a vacation. And vacations end. MATURE CONTENT. This is not a typical romance. Expect complexity, not comfort. No villains, no neat endings - just choices and what they cost.
