A woman encounters her ex-fiancĂ© during a snowstorm in their New England hometown in this short story from a New York Timesâbestselling author.
Brody Rollins is back in Tuckerâs Point, Maine, for the first time in five years, but heâs not staying long. His plan is to go in, meet his new baby nephew, and get out. Then a winter storm takes a turn for the worse, and Brody canât escape . . . from former neighbors, old regrets or painful glimpses of his ex-fiancĂ©e.
When Delaney Westcott runs into Brody at the townâs emergency shelter, sheâs shaken. She wants nothing to do with the man who left herâand Tuckerâs Pointâwithout so much as a goodbye. Being cooped up with him in a high school gym is stirring up more than just bad memories, though, and soon Delaney finds herself confiding in Brody. But will he have any reason to stay once the blizzard ends?
