Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a novel primarily about the present day rather than one that moves between past and present.

About this book

A novel about first love and its lasting impact. In 1996, sixteen-year-old Maggie Dawes is sent to live with an aunt in Ocracoke, a remote village on North Carolina's Outer Banks. There she meets Bryce Trickett, a local teenager admitted to West Point, who introduces her to photography and the beauty of the coastal town. By 2019, Maggie has become a renowned travel photographer who runs a gallery in New York and photographs locations worldwide. That year, she is unexpectedly grounded over Christmas while dealing with a serious medical diagnosis. Working closely with a young assistant, she begins to reflect on a Christmas from decades earlier and the love that shaped the course of her life. The e-reader edition includes exclusive travel photos and a letter from the author.
