Plot
Two childhood friends and teenage sweethearts are separated by a tragic event. They become adults in different countries and for all intensive purposes different worlds. They meet again (by chance of course), as adults, one of them engaged to be married and the other raising her adolescent son alone. The two end up spending time together, fueled by the adolescent son's adoration of his mother's old friend. Reality forces the two old friends to confront a painful past and they uncover more than the events that tore them apart.
Perspective
An enjoyable read about lasting childhood romance and confronting the past. Generally well written, with flash backs that keep the reader intrigued. I would recommend this book if you happen to stumble upon it, have some free time, and are looking for something light - definitely worth the time I spent reading it, but not a book that will stick out in my memory.
