Description
Rose King is returning home after a ten year absence. Nothing in Hardwicke has changed much in those ten years, Ms. Pinkerton still has the same old dog that barks at any and everything that passes by her home, Mrs. Phillips garden still has the drooping sunflowers...and the Walkers still live across the street. Of all the people Rose hoped wouldn't show up to this reunion it was Samuel Walker, otherwise known as Icarus to many of their graduated class. Keeping ten year old memories buried while living in San Francisco was easy but being home and being confronted at every corner by people in those memories, it's harder to keep the feelings and emotions away. The walls that Rose had built up over the ten years slowly begin to crumble as she lives through those memories, some are good but others are painful and Rose would rather not remember. But what happens when the one person that caused many of those painful memories wants to apologize and replace them with something better...something happier? Can Rose bring herself to forgive and move on? Can she remember what it felt like to love someone so unconditionally that their hearts shared the same walls? She isn't sure she wants to find out and face the possibility of a broken heart by the same person a second time.
