It's 2 a.m. in a dive bar on the Lower East Side, May 2001.

Then at last call, they toast to "moving on" before going their separate ways. Except as she's about to say goodbye, she decides to ask his name instead. And just like that, her life is changed forever. But has she found her soulmate only to lose him a few months later?
Brooke was a college freshman when she met Elliot. They passed on the stairwell on move-in day, they'd have brief encounters in passing, but it took him four months to muster up the courage to talk to her. He tapped her on the shoulder in the dining hall and stumbled over his words, but she said yes to a first date anyways. He loved her. Her roommate didn't approve. But Kate did, and that was all that really mattered until Kate left. Nothing mattered after Kate left. Everything changed after Kate left. That was when the scars started. That was when Elliot told Brooke it was over. She loved Elliot, too. It never changed, really.
This book is one half of a correspondence between a young man named Edwin Weller of the 107th New York Infantry to a young lady in his home town, Antoinette "Nettie" Watkins. Miss Watkins' letters to Mr. Weller did not survive because soldiers in the field had no way to save them, and it was dangerous to keep them. If captured, the information in personal letters could be used against the soldier who had received them. These letters are the record of one Union solder's experience during the Civil War, and in their honesty and feeling capture an event that affected America for generations.
