It's 1999 and Cora Belle has arrived at college ready to grow out of the shy, sheltered girl who attended an all-white prep in her all-white suburb. What she's totally unprepared for is Lincoln, with his dark skin, southern drawl, and that smile. Just when Cora thinks she's got things figured out, a new man enters her life, Aaron, further complicating everything. Twenty years later, an unexpected reconnection puts Cora right back where she started. The same two men, the same agonizing decision. Finding herself in this position again will test everything Cora thought she knew about fate, love, and most importantly, herself.
