Six young college students meet up at Penn State and form a family-like bond. They did everything together. Of course they all promised that after graduation, they would remain best friends. Fast forward twenty years. They all lead their own lives, some good, some not. Until one day, they all receive a fed ex envelope from Bea. Strange, since she died years earlier. Bea's 40th birthday is coming up. She would like them all to meet up at their old apartment.

All of them have their own memories of the apartment and of course of Bea. Colin, always loved Bea, but no one knew. None of them know the other big secret that he is keeping from them. Katherine and Owen were lovers in college and are married. Katherine runs her own business and Owen stays at home with the kids. Lindy is a very popular signer, but also has many secrets. Annie the one that everyone thinks has the perfect life has a cheating husband.

Love this story line. Allison Winn Scotch makes me wonder how I would react to returning to a place that was dear to me after years away. I really liked that all of them felt they had the best life possible, but in reality none of them are perfect.

Allison Winn Scotch shows that you really can't go back in time and expected everything to be the same. Everyone has secrets. Some can hurt other people. I found myself at times feeling sorry for some of the characters. Especially Colin has he has the biggest secret of all of them.
