After almost twenty-five years of marriage, Abbi and Nix sleep in separate rooms and share little more than a house.
Exhausted by a husband who will not even look up from his phone to say good morning, she finally asks for a divorce—then their daughter announces her engagement ten minutes later.
Unwilling to let their failure shadow that celebration, Abbi agrees to stay until after the wedding, pretending a little longer at a happiness she has already been faking for six years.
Nix spent those same years chasing financial security and never saw that the wife he fell for as a teenager was drowning in neglect; now he will do anything to prove their marriage is still worth saving.
When they learn their son is lying broken in a German hospital, the distance between them collapses, and the only sanctuary they find is in each other.
