LOS ANGELES, 2015
When Cecilia Chen is involved in a car accident soon after moving to LA with her husband and children, she’s stunned to recognise the other driver: Anouk Ferrand – a woman she hasn’t seen in twenty years, yet has never been able to forget.
MEXICO, 1996
Cecilia was a young photographer’s assistant; Anouk, an unknown model on the cusp of becoming a sensation. For a few brief days on the wild Mexican coast, their worlds collided with an intensity that altered the course of Cecilia’s life – though she never knew whether Anouk felt it, or even remembered her.
Now Anouk is impossible to ignore: magnetic, accomplished, and suddenly back in Cecilia’s orbit. And as the spark between them reignites into an irresistible affair, Cecilia is forced to confront everything she knew about desire, devotion and the life she has built.
Some affairs are decades in the making – and this one is about to change everything.
