FAR AWAY FROM HERE by ML Roberts

Five years after their breakup, Reggie, a fast-rising young entrepreneur, reunites with his ex-girlfriend Vera, an older, world-famous artist. When Reggie confesses he is still in love with Vera, the two decide to re-enact their relationship and figure out where things went wrong. A romantic comedy confronting issues of age, race, art, and love.
