Thoughts:
Aurora meets the love of her life while in college... oddly enough she was at a party at his house but she was using her time to study. Ethan is handsome, wealthy and charming he's used to having women approach him so when he meets Aurora in the restricted part of his home at a party his sister is throwing he can't wait to talk to her again... only she doesn't call him right away! What? He can't let her slip away and uses their mutual aquaintance (his sister) to take his chance which leads to so much more.
Ethan thinks that Aurora will be with him forever he knows she's it for him he got the ring now he just needs the perfect night to ask. Only instead of the life time of happiness with her he's expecting leads to depression, bitterness and feelings of betrayal she left him without even looking back moved almost 3,000 miles away from him and won't return his calls he wants answers from her but he'll probably never get them.
Six years later Aurora is a well respected Physical Therapist known for doing the impossible and when Jasper (Ethan's older brother) Contacts her for her help after Ethan got into a MVA leading to loss of mobility in lower extremities against her better judgement she gets on the next plane to Oregon... only to be met with Ethan not wanting her help... well she knew it wouldn't be easy.
Ethan and Aurora seeing each other again brings old feelings to the surface... lets be real those feelings are not old they never left. Aurora is set on keeping Ethan on a strict recovery schedule she wants to help him walk again but he needs to put in the work.

Will she ever be able fully tell him what happened all those years ago that led to their break up?
