They knew each other as children, but will the years apart keep them from having what they both want? Curvy Teresa Baxter lives her boring waitress life in a small town. Working at her family’s restaurant is all she has going for her. She jokes about living the cat-lady lifestyle, minus the cats. Then, at her high school reunion, Gavin walks back into her life, reminding Teresa of all things she always wanted and could still have. After one night of shared passion with Gavin, everything changes…faster than Teresa can wrap her head around. She is left wondering if she has the strength to deal with the consequence of her recklessness. But she is determined to try and leaves her beloved town to pursue a job in the corporate world. Little does Teresa know that an even bigger surprise awaits her in the city. In high school Gavin had the biggest crush on the vivacious Teresa, but his shyness kept him from doing anything about it. Now he has more success and wealth than he ever imagined and bears no resemblance to the recluse he once was. But his success only reminds him of the one thing he still didn’t have, Teresa Baxter.
