It had haunted me all my life. Maybe even formed who I was. I'll never know, because
I can never undo what happened or see the person I might have been. My thoughts drifted back
to the sound of the big, fancy door--always that door--slamming behind me as the
memories rushed over me yet again.... __________________________ Aimee Parker is trapped in a loveless marriage to a man who makes her feel worthless.
I can never undo what happened or see the person I might have been. My thoughts drifted back
to the sound of the big, fancy door--always that door--slamming behind me as the
memories rushed over me yet again.... __________________________ Aimee Parker is trapped in a loveless marriage to a man who makes her feel worthless.
Isolated after quitting her job to care for her mother, she finds solace in the music--and the
voice--of Rob Stone, a singer- songwriter who lives across the country. After they meet at a party, Aimee and Rob begin an intense long-distance friendship that
fills her heart with hope and joy--even though Rob is also married, and seemingly not
unhappily so. Steve may be materially generous, but he is emotionally bankrupt; Rob
appears to be everything Steve is not, and everything Aimee thinks she needs. Then Rob reveals that he is also a fledgling sex therapist--a healer who uses his hands to
awaken women's sexual energy--and Aimee is thrown. Her past trauma makes it
impossible to fully trust him, yet despite her fears, she flies to the West Coast to be with
him and meet his family. The week they spend together is blissful, confusing,
and impossible to forget. But when Aimee returns home, her world collapses. Was Rob a healer, or a manipulator all along? Is Aimee better off without him?
Without Steve? And without the wounded version of herself she has carried for so long...?
