Some people are running from intimacy. Others are chasing it. What happens when they fall in love?
Aaron, a passionate English teacher who believes in emotional honesty above all else, meets Daniel, a brilliant architect who's mastered the art of keeping everyone at arm's length. Their chemistry is undeniable, their connection immediate-and their fundamental attachment styles completely incompatible.
As they navigate the treacherous terrain of modern love, Aaron and Daniel find themselves caught in the classic anxious-avoidant trap: the more Aaron reaches for connection, the more Daniel retreats into work and emotional distance. The more Daniel withdraws, the more desperately Aaron pursues. It's a dance as old as relationships themselves, performed by two men who are experts in their respective steps.
But when a series of crises forces them to confront their patterns, both men must decide what they're really running from-and whether what they've found in each other is worth fighting for.
Sharp, witty, and unflinchingly honest, Through the Gripevine explores the beautiful mess of modern relationships and the painful truth that sometimes loving someone means learning when to let them go...or when to stay and do the hardest work of all.
For anyone who's ever wondered why they keep choosing unavailable partners-or why they can't stop running from the ones who truly see them-this novel holds up a mirror that's as uncomfortable as it is illuminating.
Sometimes the person you're really avoiding is yourself.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
