From<\/em>\u00a0New York Times\u00a0bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel.<\/em><\/p>\n

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right?<\/p>\n

Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer.<\/p>\n

From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I\u2019d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.<\/p>\n

Then I noticed his housemate staring back at me with binoculars of his own\u2014watching\u00a0me\u00a0<\/em>watching Leo.<\/p>\n

That made for an interesting conversation starter when I inevitably ran into them.<\/p>\n

Turned out, the handsome Brits were only renting that house for the summer in my seaside town.<\/p>\n

Leo and I formed an instant connection, even though we were technically opposites by all appearances. I taught him how to dig for clams, and he taught me that not all wealthy and powerful guys are pretentious.<\/p>\n

Despite knowing he was totally wrong for me, I couldn\u2019t seem to stay away.<\/p>\n

It was a wild and crazy few months. And before I knew it, we\u2019d fallen in love.<\/p>\n

We both had one wish: more time together.<\/p>\n

But Leo had obligations back home. He lived a life I\u2019d never fit into. And I was going to law school. So, we decided to end it and never look back.<\/p>\n

A part of me always felt like I\u2019d let my soulmate walk away.<\/p>\n

I believed our story was over.<\/p>\n

Until five years later when he sent me a letter that shook me to my core.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d thought my world was turned upside down that first summer?<\/p>\n

Well, I knew nothing yet.<\/p>\n
