It’s a fool’s hope that she’d open her heart to him a second time, but a fool’s hope is better than none.

Amid all the chaos, Maddie faces an unprecedented battle to carve out a new life on her own terms, but if she can do it, she might just realize that sometimes life’s detours lead you right where you’re supposed to be.
