Join Grace as she chases the one who got away all the way to Edisto Island and ultimately finds herself as well.
Grace Ramsey is in a slump: with one failed marriage under her belt, she lives in Atlanta in an unimaginatively decorated apartment, her job is unsatisfying and her dearest friend lately seems to be her cat. Aside from nightly phone calls with her dad that last until his favorite game show comes on, nothin’ much is happening in Grace’s life.
That is, until she gets a wedding invitation from a college friend. Jared Campbell, presumed lifelong bachelor, is getting married on Edisto Island , SC. Seeing him and her best friend from college, Cissy Patton, sounds like fun but going to the wedding would also mean seeing Ben Henry, her college crush. And Ben had made it perfectly clear one night, while lying in a hospital bed after an accident which changed both of their lives, that he never wanted to see Grace again.
Many questions plague Grace: should she go to the wedding and try to mend the old hurt with Ben? Are roads to the past better left untraveled? And, where the heck is Edisto Island ? Told in a casual Southern voice, Grace’s journey will make you laugh, cringe and want to call your best friends.
