Synopsis
A decade-spanning love story from Emma Brodie, author of the American Book Award-winning Songs in Ursa Major. In the summer of 2000, aspiring comedy writer AJ Graves meets Noah Drew, heir to a famous acting family, while working at her family's video rental store in small-town Massachusetts, and the two forge an unspoken bond under the guidance of Noah's great-aunt and acting mentor, Eudora Drew. When Noah disappears without explanation, AJ is left to build a life and career on her own — until, seven years later, a reunion on a New York television set forces them to confront the secret that tore them apart. A Reese's Book Club pick and the fourth title published under Jenna Bush Hager's Thousand Voices imprint.
