Description
Life has left Jack and Clare battered and bruised - sometimes emotionally, sometimes literally.
Years pass them by, almost unnoticed, until each decides to make a change. But deciding to change isn't something that happens once. It's a choice each has to make again and again, and old patterns lurk around every corner.
When they meet, fate offers them a chance to help each other.
Can they be brave enough to open their hearts, strong enough to walk away and wise enough to understand a thing called love?
