The back of it says though... In the spring of 1984 high school students Amanda Collier and Dawson Cole fell deeply in love. Though they were from opposite sides of the tracks their love for each other seemed to defy the realities of life in the small town of Oriental North Carolina. but as the summer of their senior year came to a close unforeseen events would tear the young couple apart setting them on radical divergent paths. Now 25 years later Amanda and Dawson are summoned back to oriental for a funeral. Neither has lived neither has lived the life they imagined... and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever change their lives. forced to confront painful memories the 2 warmer lovers sam realize that everything they thought they knew about themselves and the dreams they held dear, was not as it seemed. And in the course of a single searing weekend they will ask of the living and the dead: can love truly rewrite the past?
