From the bestselling, award-winning author comes a tale of two remarkable women and their complex friendship spanning decades. In 1958, the dean of Lovegood Junior College for Girls pairs Feron Hood with Merry Jellicoe as roommates, unaware of the profound consequences. Feron, escaping a dark past, is drawn to Merry's composed demeanor. Amidst Lovegood's traditions and architecture, their friendship flourishes, yet beneath it lies a deeper bond filled with secrets, rivalry, and influence. Neither can foresee that Merry is on the brink of losing everything she has always known, leading to a premature end to their time together. A decade later, Feron and Merry have not spoken since college, having drifted into vastly different lives. However, as Feron reflects, once someone enters your "reference aura," they remain forever. When both women find themselves in need of each other’s essence, their remarkable affinity, unbroken by time, is reignited, shifting their lives once more. Luminous and literary, this narrative explores the powerful friendship between two talented writers, whose bond endures through decades of change, illustrating the enduring nature of connection and the journey of finding and losing each other repeatedly.
