Summary

[Gina’s Story Part 3/3] Twenty years after their first romance imploded, Gina and Viv cautiously rebuild—this time with intention rather than impulse. What begins as innocent daily check-ins quickly intensifies, compelling Gina to clear her dating roster and fly to Colorado. As they navigate their reunion with careful boundaries, both discover they've grown into exactly who they needed to become. The transformation radiates beyond their relationship, as those closest to Gina watch her rebuild a life true to herself. Their evolving connection offers a glimpse into what's possible when two people return to each other with newfound emotional tools and the courage to try again.
