    Summary

    Five times a stranger overhears two men having the kind of life-altering conversation that should probably stay private, and one time an airport bartender gets the aftermath. National parks, historic sites, and one extremely unlucky red-eye all become accidental witnesses to a love story built out of grief and stubborn devotion.

    Summary

    Instead, happiness had turned out to be a man with cold extremities.

    Because of course it had.

    Jack shifted behind him and, with a level of audacity usually reserved for toddlers and Roman emperors, slid his frozen foot against Robby’s calf.

    Robby shot upright.

    “No.”

    Jack burst out laughing.

    “No. Absolutely not. That is an act of war.”
