Summary
Two years ago, Lucy Chen lost the love of her life.
Or at least that's what it felt like when Tim Bradford walked away from the relationship they'd spent years building and that caused Lucy to move cities and start from scratch.
Now, on Jackson West's thirty-fourth birthday, Lucy returns to the LA, and the cemetery to continue a tradition she's kept since losing her best friend.
What she doesn't expect is to discover she's not the only one still visiting.
A bouquet.
A note.
A ghost from her past sitting quietly on a bench.
As old memories resurface, Lucy finds herself retracing her love story —from undercover feelings and first dates to soul-deep love and devastating heartbreak.
Because maybe some loves never really end.
And maybe some stories deserve a second chance.

Summary
Bradford takes a turn, pushing the door to the stairwell open, "you're leading the ASD today. Let's see what you've got. A fellow's real skills or the name of Patrick and Vanessa Chen's daughter."
Lucy takes a deep breath. That moment, she resents the assumption that doors were opened for her because of her last name, that a path was written for her by Patrick and Vanessa Chen, that her way here was basically guaranteed all because she was born into a family of surgical legends.

Summary
As she gets closer, Tim is immediately drawn to her wide brown eyes; they are broadcasting her emotional state for everyone to see — some combination of eager and excited and nervous. The polar opposite of the cool and guarded expression he is careful to keep on his own face.
Angela turns to look at him, clearly trying to gauge his reaction before she whacks him with her bouquet and hisses, “That is your soon-to-be wife, Tim, not your new boot, so maybe chill out with the death glare. You shouldn’t be trying to intimidate her.”
Tim ignores her; he begs to differ. This woman is supposed to be his wife. Chosen by supposed experts to be his life partner, his perfect other half. He is sure as hell going to be assessing whether she measures up to his standards. The fact that he already knows all of this is bullshit honestly just makes him that much more inclined to prove it.
When she reaches the end of the aisle, she stops in front of him and tilts her head to smile up at him in this sweet, hopeful way that he simultaneously finds incredibly endearing and incredibly irritating — like he holds her fate in his hands, and she is counting on him not to f*ck it up.
