It was the last kiss that ever weakened her knees, the last sky she noticed for over a dozen years.

Thirteen years later, her husband leaves Blythe for his young associate. Devastated, she’s unable to imagine the next chapter of her life as she packs her family’s belongings to move across town. Unexpectedly, she finds the forgotten slip of paper bearing Finn’s phone number in the back of a drawer.

Creative. Determined. 5. What is your favorite activity? Writing! By far. If one can consider such an activit...
