Every ending is also a new beginning . . .

On the night before they leave for college, Clare and Aidan have only one thing left to do: figure out whether they should stay together or break up. In twelve hours, they'll be heading to opposite ends of the country, and they're anxious to resolve things before they go.

But the quiet night they had planned quickly turns into an unexpected adventure, a roller-coaster ride through their past that leads to family and friends, familiar landmarks and unexpected places, hard truths and surprising revelations. . . .

And as the clock winds down and morning approaches, so does their inevitable goodbye. The question is, will it be goodbye for now or goodbye forever?

Full of wisdom, heart, and hope, Jennifer E. Smith's irresistible novel explores what happens when life and love lead in different directions.
