After finding love with Gavin as a young dancer, Penny, fourteen years later, is a suburban housewife married to someone else, but when she and her husnand realize how different they are, Penny is torn between saving her marriage or going back to her first love.

Penny spends her afternoons sitting outside a sandwich shop, surrounded by ghosts. Fourteen years ago, this shop was her childhood dance studioand she was a dancer on the rise. Now shes a suburban housewife, dreading the moment her son departs for MIT, leaving her with an impeccably decorated McMansion and a failing marriage. She had her chance at wild, stars-in-her-eyes happiness, but that was a lifetime ago. After The Kiss. Before The Decision. The Kiss was soulful. Magical. Earth-shattering. And it was all for a free gift card. Asked to participate in a psych study that posed the question, “Can you have sexual chemistry without knowing what the other person looks like?” Penny agreed to be blindfolded, make polite conversation with a total stranger, and kiss him. She never expected The Kiss to change her life forever and introduce her to Gavin: tattooed, gorgeous, and spontaneous enough to ask her out seconds after the blindfolds came off. For a year, they danced between friendship and romanceuntil Penny made The Decision that forced them to settle for friendship. Now, fourteen years later, both of their lives are about to radically changeand its his turn to decide what will become of their once-in-a-lifetime connection.
