    Summary

    “We do not owe any soul, except that which played the most vital role in our lives.” - Michael Bassey Johnson

     

    At the end of the day, Joel doesn’t remember. He looks at the photo in Marlene’s hand and there’s a tug of recognition, a hook behind his naval that tells him, yes—he’s seen this woman before. But he doesn’t recall the feel of her weight beneath his, the curve of her hips, sinking himself into that warm body, so no—he can’t say for sure.

    Fifteen years is a long time.

    But then he sees the girl— Ellie, and he knows it’s true.


    Where Marlene tracks Joel down to tell him he has a kid, then asks him to bring that kid across the country. How will Joel and Ellie cope when their roles are already clearly defined for them?
