    Summary

    I came to L.A. for my fresh start... and then my past showed up. I've moved on. At least that's what I've told myself all these years after the boy from the streets left me to pursue his dreams. I have my own dreams now. And they don't involve a 6'4 tatted hockey star who thinks he's god. He tells me I'm the one. That he came back for me all those years ago... That he's never going to let me go.

    Summary

    I have a history of picking the wrong guy. Gay? Player? Momma’s boy? Check, check and check.

    Now I can’t stop fantasizing about one of the customers at the coffee shop I work at between classes. It’s just a harmless crush, right? It’s not like I ever see this guy outside of the coffee shop. It’s not like I’m going to see him while attempting to get birth control at the student clinic. While wearing a paper gown. While sitting on an exam table. Because he’s the doctor. Shoot. Me.

    Summary

    “I’m Elín,” El said and there was the note of stubbornness she’d always carried in her, still so present. “Please,” she said. “Please, Mike.”

    Mike let out a laugh that grated on his ears, “Finally. I thought you’d forgotten my name.”

    El’s brows furrowed, lips twisting, “You think I’d ever forget your name? Forget you?”

    “Did you not?” Mike asked with a pained smile. 

    Egged on by his editor, Mike embarks on a journey to the remote town of East Iceland, Seyðisfjörður, to recuperate and perhaps, find something inspiring to write about. What he finds there instead is the love of his life, once presumed dead, now real before his eyes, and a community that offers him the space to heal without handing him the cure.

    Maybe his life still has capacity for the adventure and wonder that he’d once thought he’d lost forever.
