Summary
"In a sleepy seaside town in Maine, recently widowed Evvie Drake rarely leaves her home almost a year after her husband's death. Everyone thinks grief keeps her locked inside, and Evvie doesn't correct them. Meanwhile, In New York City, former Major League pitcher Dean Tenney is wrestling with a downward turn in his career. As the media storm heats up, an invitation from an old friend to stay in Maine seems like a chance to hit the reset button. When Dean rents an apartment at the back of Evvie's house, the two make a deal: Dean won't ask about Evvie's husband, and Evvie won't ask about Dean's career. Rules, though, have a way of begging to be broken, and what starts as an unexpected friendship soon turns into something more. To move forward, Evvie and Dean will have to reckon with their pasts--the friendships they've damaged, the secrets they've kept--but in life, as in baseball, there's always a chance--up until the last out."-- Back cover
