Uncrossed Paths is a bittersweet tale about two people who find an undeniable connection despite their differences. It's a story of friendship, unspoken feelings, and self-growth, showing that sometimes the most meaningful bonds are the ones that change us forever, even if they don't last. Have you ever met someone who feels like the right person but at the wrong time? The kind of person you tell your secrets to, laugh with until your stomach hurts, and feel an effortless vibe that words can't explain. For a moment, it feels like maybe, just maybe, this could be something... but deep down, you know the timing, the circumstances, or the universe itself won't let it happen. That's what Uncrossed Paths is about, two souls who connect as if they were meant for each other, yet fate keeps them on separate tracks. A story where love lingers in silence, and the "what ifs" echo louder than the words ever spoken.

When her estranged sister is involved in a near-fatal car accident, twenty-five-year-old Jordan Friedman finds herself the temporary guardian of her eight-year-old niece, Cory, who she has not seen since she was a toddler. To make things easier for everyone, Jordan moves Cory into the house she shares with her two eccentric and very opposite housemates. As the four girls navigate growing up together, Jordan struggles to balance caring for Cory, managing her comatose sister's affairs, and continuing to scrape by with her wedding photography business. The longer Cory stays with her, the more Jordan struggles to stay afloat. But Cory has nowhere else to go, and after six years of silence between them, Jordan is determined to do right by her sister, even if it means wedging a hesitant foot in a door that closed long ago.
