❝Her mother, the night sky. Her father, the stars in it. But if there are no longer stars left to light up the night sky, what does that leave? Darkness.❞ Change - once a stranger to Avalon Spencer has now become her only companion. As her parent's divorce is on the verge of being finalized, Avalon must learn to adapt to her father's hometown: Windsor, Berkshire for it may become the place she will call home herself. Avalon wasn't expecting the death of her parents' love to create such a rippling effect as changes in her life seem to be multiplying faster than she can count. However, for Finnegan Moreau, change is the essential tool in order to fix his broken family. What is disguised as Windsor's perfect and most prosperous family has only ever been abundant in riches but never in love. Finnegan has never been hesitant to admit that his family's "happiness" is just another illusion they all cradle for comfort. When these two clashes together, changes occur whether they like it or not. Friendship evolves through an extraordinary encounter, and ultimately love ignites along with its untamable flames. Battles wage within both their families, but through the midst of the storm, what these two realize is that all along there was an everlasting star that never, not once, died out on them.

Hudson Ellis is good at his job. Somehow, he manages not to annoy people when he knocks at their doors and asks them to contribute to the charity he works for - instead, he gets them to sign up for sponsoring programmes and fish whatever spare change they have out of their pockets. Even the infamously tough residents of New York City are falling victim to Hudson's easy-going ways and wide smile; that is, until one woman renders him speechless with sarcastic refusals and slams her door in his face. Perhaps Hudson would be able to forget her - if it wasn't for the fact that she lives on the same floor of the next apartment over, and they both have floor-to-ceiling windows that allow for a rather generous view into each other's flats.
