"Two decades ago, Adam Sharp had a passionate relationship with an actress who taught him for the first time what it meant to find--and then lose--love. Now she's back in touch and Adam must decide if having a second chance is worth the risk"-- Provided by publisher.
On the cusp of turning fifty, Adam Sharp is happy with his partner Claire, excels in music trivia at quiz night at the local pub, looks after his mother, and does the occasional consulting job in IT. But he can never quite shake off his nostalgia for what might have been: his blazing affair more than twenty years ago with an intelligent and strong-willed actress named Angelina Brown who taught him for the first time what it means to find-- and then lose-- love. How different might his life have been if he hadn't let her walk away? When Angelina unexpectedly gets in touch, what does she want? Is a second chance worth the risks?
