Book excerpt: After Colton’s father died, his mother returned to her hometown of Cambridge, UK, leaving him to his life in New York. He’s happy, apart from only being able to see his mother once a year at Christmas. It’s during one visit, he meets Ioan, a carer, who lights him up like a Christmas tree. It makes the experience more special because Ioan understands how Colton feels when his mother doesn’t recognise him. Ioan loves his job, but his heart breaks every time pain flares through Colton’s eyes, especially as he knows Colton’s time in the UK is short. When he gets the opportunity to visit New York, he doesn’t entertain the thought of bumping into Colton – after all, the city is enormous. When he meets up with him by chance, he tries to hide how happy he is, pushing down the feelings before they could escape. The more time they steal together, the closer they become, but nothing can happen with three thousand miles between them. Ioan has experience of long-distance relationships, and he’ll never go there again. Find out what happens when their decisions set them on a path of heartache and happiness.
