After a decade of silence, Dee and Ben reunite for a road trip they once promised to take. Its going to be a bumpy ride.
Dee Matthews is the cohost of the smash-hit podcast Did I Forget To Tell You?, where she interviews family, friends, and past lovers. Nothing is off limits, except for one man (known on the show only as Name Redacted) who happens to be her high school best friend Ben. During their senior year spring break, Dee and Ben took a road trip to visit Bens grandma. They buried a time capsule in her backyard, pledging to return in ten years to open it. Then their friendship fell apart in spectacular fashion. They havent spoken to each other since.
Ben Porters life since that moment has been unexciting but comfortable, until his grandma reveals a family secret that flips his whole world upside down. Her dying wish is for him to stop doing what is safest and go after what he really wants. He starts by showing up on Dees doorstep with every intention of fulfilling their long-ago promise. Despite her reservations, Dee cant say no. This trip could be her chance to give her listeners the Name Redacted interview theyve been begging forand finally put her unresolved feelings for Ben to rest.
As the miles fly by, Dee and Ben''s friendship reignites. But the closer they get to reaching their destination, the more apparent it becomes that their attraction to each other cannot be ignored. Their last adventure ended in disaster, and theyre about to find out if any hope of a future together is in the rear view mirror.
