Eric Thompson has built a meaningful life as a social worker and devoted single father, but seeing Daniel again stirs feelings he thought were long buried. As Daniel finally confronts his decades of living closeted and Eric risks opening his guarded heart, both men must decide if the timing that failed them at twenty-two might finally be right at forty-nine. A tender second-chance romance about courage, authenticity, and discovering that love is worth the wait.
