Simon Lynley is doing better. He moved to Bethlehem to fall out of love and rebuild his career. An affair with his neighbor isn't part of the plan, but the attraction between them is too hard to ignore.
But when Simon's ex follows him to Pennsylvania to reconcile, and Charlie's life starts to feel like a video on repeat, everything comes apart. Charlie fears that he's failing as a father, and Simon is a distraction he can't afford. Meanwhile Simon doesn't know if he could survive being left again, and he hasn't come all this way to make the same mistakes. Despite their fears, it's only together that they'll find the strength to slay old foes and build the forever they've been waiting for.
