But as she navigates her way through the wreckage of the marriage she thought would last forever, she becomes determined to make a life on her own. With New York City as her backdrop, Gabby--single for the first time since she was a teenager--goes back to school, gets her first real job, and faces unfamiliar reality with determination. <p/>Gabby's life takes another turn when she falls in love with her mysterious but utterly beautiful creative writing professor, Colt. Being with Colt is exhilarating for her--something new, something exciting and beyond understanding. He is almost seven years her junior, and a literary genius. But he is also battling demons of his own: a tragic past that may have made him incapable of love. <p/>Is Gabby destined for another heartbreak--or will her connection with Colt be what unbreaks her?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Featured in "The Most Anticipated Books of Fall" on Women.com<br>Featured in "Most Anticipated Romance Books of Fall 2021" on SheReads.com<br>Featured in "Most Anticipated Fall Books of 2021" on <i>Create and Cultivate</i><br>Featured in "The 55 Best New Books of October " on <i>Popsugar</i><br>Featured on Inquirer.net</b><p><br>"A woman starts over after the end of her marriage in Gabriel's debut contemporary romance novel . . . the author's narrative voice is engaging, and readers will root for Gabby and Colt to find happiness.
