P R E F A C E
This book is probably the hardest one I've written to date. Not because I couldn't connect with the story, but because it is perhaps the closest thing to my life. I've been afraid and self conscious to write anything new. Anything that wasn't YA and written when I was a teenager. This is my new chapter. A chapter I had been working on for three years since I've last left you. I hope this story makes up for my absence. I missed you all.

"I don't know how you are so familiar to me—or why it feels less like I am getting to know you and more as though I am remembering who you are. How every smile, every whisper brings me closer to the impossible conclusion that I have known you before, I have loved you before—in another time, a different place, some other existence."
-Lang Leav, Soulmates

kis·met
/ˈkizmit,ˈkizˌmet/
noun
destiny; fate.
We were always fated to be in each others lives. It was written in the stars the moment we wrestled on the playground our first day of preschool. But it was easier to love him behind the veil of hatred than to ever be upfront. Of course things only got complicated from there. My family crumbled, and left to rebuild again and I knew I'd never see Derek Navarro again. I made peace with that, I had to. Of course, fate had other plans.
Fast-forward to my new life in New York working on my breakthrough novel, when fate rears it's ugly head in my life again. My baby sister is getting married to a boy who grew up in the childhood home we left behind...and his best man is none other than Derek. The love I had chosen to forget.
Was this fate at work?
