Глава, започнала преди осемнайсет години и приключила с разбито сърце.

Докато преосмислят постъпките на младите хора, които някога са били, ще могат ли Кейди и Кърт да се поучат от случилото се в миналото и да се преоткрият?

Амелия е американска наследница, която някога е имала съвършен живот – съпруг, когото обича, две красиви деца и всичко, което би могла да поиска.

Тя събира багажа си и ги последва, твърдо решена да стори всичко по силите си, за да оправи отношенията си с тях.

И двамата са извървели труден път, макар да идват от напълно различни светове.

Амелия не я е грижа, ала Мики се притеснява, че няма да се впише в нейния свят. Но дали чувствата им са достатъчно силни, за да открият щастието един с друг?
