Publisher's Synopsis
Life is full of choices and consequently what-ifs. You can spend your whole life pondering about them or just choose one, as I did.
Searching for a CD, I bumped into an enchanting stranger from Japan at a music store. Immediately captivated by his charismatic aura, I did something out of the ordinary for me and accepted his invitation to have a drink, following him across Seattle to a little Italian restaurant. I could have said "no" and walked away, but I chose not to.
Looking back now, I wonder if he knew how his simple offer would change my life forever--if he had the slightest idea that he would shatter and challenge my ideas of love, relationships, and intimacy to their very core.
