After August
Ashley Lane

Jacob Redding had come to terms with being alone, but seeing his ex-wife carrying the baby he couldn't give her reignited old wounds. Teaching at the same college made it hard to avoid her. Over the summer, he'd nearly decided to quit and focus on his writing career, but something kept holding him back.
College graduation in the Spring. A big summer wedding. Ally Montgomery felt like her luck was finally turning around.
Until one August day, when her mother dropped a bombshell over lunch, setting off a series of events Ally never saw coming. Finishing school was the last thing on her mind, but she had promised her mother she would - and after all they'd been through, she couldn't bear the thought of letting her down.
Now a senior in Creative Writing, Ally finds herself back in Jacob Redding's class, the same professor navigating his divorce during her freshman year. As their paths cross again, will an unexpected connection change their lives forever?
