Somewhere out there, Wish -- the boy she couldn't save -- is about to make a decision that can't be undone. With time running out and the world bending in strange, quiet ways, Ruelle must find Wish before it's too late. And the closer she gets, the more she realizes this isn't just the second chance she wished for. Just One Day is a hauntingly tender tale about grief, love, and the invisible battles we fight. If you had one day to save the person you love, what would you do? UPDATES: Complete
