Six years ago, Dean Winchester fell in love. Then, without warning, she walked away. Rebecca Carter was supposed to be a closed chapter. A memory. A girl from a small town Dean never expected to see again. Smart, stubborn, and impossible to forget, she was one of the few people Dean ever allowed himself to imagine a future with. But six years is a long time. People change. Lives move on. And hunters don't get the luxury of looking back. At least, that's what Dean tells himself. When an ordinary hunt brings the Winchester brothers back to a place Dean hasn't thought about in years, old memories begin to surface, and questions long buried refuse to stay buried. As strange coincidences begin to pile up and the lines between past and present start to blur, Dean finds himself chasing answers to questions he never thought he'd ask again. Because some endings don't stay finished. Some secrets refuse to stay hidden. And sometimes, the past has a way of finding you.
