Every minute away from you is a minute too long.
Coop
It's been ten years since he kissed me, and I can still feel it-his warm lips, his soft touch. He was my best friend, but then he abandoned me just before my entire life fell apart. When he shows up at the diner where I work, with his fancy job, new car, and beautiful fiancée, my heart feels like it's being ripped in two. Should I bury my feelings, forget the past, and give him a second chance at rebuilding our friendship, even though I know it can never be anything more than that?
Josh
Ten years ago, I made the worst decision of my life in the aftermath of the only kiss that
ever
meant something to me. I never stopped loving him, even if I didn't get to tell him that. When I run into Coop at a small diner in rural Nebraska, all those feelings I suppressed for years are back, threatening to upend the perfect life I'd built. I've got two weeks to convince him I'm sorry. But can I keep my other feelings locked away, or will that sexy baseball cap of his be my undoing?
