Everyone deserves a second chance, but not for the same mistake. At least according to Brooklyn Tanner. Over the course of their long, complicated friendship, she's given Andrew Brinks more than enough chances. What has she received in return? Heartache. Pain. Agony. But also love, as cruel and beautiful as it's always been between them. When outside circumstances threaten Drew's family, will Brooklyn finally put aside the grief of her past to offer him the support, and perhaps love, he needs? Or was their fate sealed all those years ago when Drew had no choice but to betray her?

Brooklyn Tanner and Andrew Brinks have a long history...one she wants nothing more than to forget. Considering he's her best friend's brother and single father to two amazing girls who mean the world to her, it's almost impossible. When the man she's been dating proposes, she thinks it's exactly what she needs to finally close this chapter of her life. After all, over 16 years have passed since she gave Andrew Brinks her heart, only for him to destroy it. Why should that matter now? But it matters to Drew. When he learns of her engagement, he realizes he has a decision to make.

He found me in the dark when I thought all hope was lost. He swore he loved me when I didn't think anyone ever would. He vowed to keep the shadows haunting me at bay when I felt like I was drowning in my past. But in doing so, he also kept the truth from me.  

My life has always been a series of carefully constructed roads. Always the passenger, never the driver. Except with Dante. He makes me feel like a princess, a goddess, a queen.... His queen. We met in the clouds. We bared our souls in the clouds. We fell in love in the clouds. But is our love deep enough to survive the return to earth?

Once upon a time, a mysterious, passionate man opened my eyes to things I'd been blind to, my heart to feelings I never thought imaginable, my mind to endless possibilities. Once upon a time, I experienced something I didn't think existed in real life. Once upon a time, I learned how to fly. Little did I know it was with broken wings. Ones that were irreparable after a lifetime of being caged.
