When Emily Stevenson returns home for her brother’s wedding, she’s surprised at how little her hometown has changed in the twenty years she’s been gone. Before she heads to her parents’ house, she stops at Waffle House for a bite to eat.

There she runs into Jenna McAllister, her former best friend in school whom she hasn’t seen in years. Jenna stirs up emotions Emily hasn’t felt in quite a while, and not just of friendship, either.

But is she the only one?
