New York Times bestselling author of On the
Island, Tracey Garvis Graves, presents the compelling,
hopelessly romantic novel of unconditional love. Annika (rhymes with Monica) Rose is an English major at the
University of Illinois. Anxious in social situations where
she finds most people's behavior confusing, she'd rather be
surrounded by the order and discipline of books or the quiet
solitude of playing chess. Jonathan Hoffman joined the chess club and lost his first
game--and his heart--to the shy and awkward, yet brilliant
and beautiful Annika. He admires her ability to be true to
herself, quirks and all, and accepts the challenges involved
in pursuing a relationship with her. Jonathan and Annika
bring out the best in each other, finding the confidence and
courage within themselves to plan a future together. What
follows is a tumultuous yet tender love affair that
withstands everything except the unforeseen tragedy that
forces them apart, shattering their connection and leaving
them to navigate their lives alone. Now, a decade later, fate reunites Annika and Jonathan in
Chicago. She's living the life she wanted as a librarian.
He's a Wall Street whiz, recovering from a divorce and
seeking a fresh start. The attraction and strong feelings
they once shared are instantly rekindled, but until they
confront the fears and anxieties that drove them apart,
their second chance will end before it truly begins.
