Have you ever felt a love that lives in silence, in the spaces no one notices? A longing that trembles in your chest but never finds its voice? What if the one who could fill the emptiness inside you is the one you are too afraid to reach for? What if every almost, every hesitation, every word left unsent has been shaping your life more than you realize? Can you find the courage before fear takes over? Can you cross the spaces that keep you apart without breaking yourself? What if the person you were meant to love has been walking beside you all along, yet you never dared to see them? What if the life you dream of exists only in the moments you almost live it? What if letting go is the only way to hold on? And when the lines between hope and heartbreak blur, will you recognize what you've been searching for before it slips away forever? In the quiet between longing and choice, between love and fear, the question remains for you, for me, for every heart that dares to hope: can we step into the life and the love that has been waiting for us all along?

The story "We Fell in Love in July" was born from decades of being a Swiftie and the countless hours I have spent listening to Taylor Swift's music over the years. "We fell in love in July" takes you on Celestine's extraordinary journey through the labyrinth of love. As she unexpectedly encounters three captivating men, their destinies become entwined in ways they never could have imagined.The first guy, a savior turned friend, shares a deep connection with Celestine, harboring a clandestine affection that matches her own. A chance encounter at a convenience store introduces the second guy, a charming cashier, sparking a friendship that teeters on the edge of something far greater. And amidst the chaos of a bus ride before the pandemic's grip, Celestine meets the third guy, igniting a flame of possibility. Delve into the depths of Celestine's heart as it becomes entangled in a tapestry of romance, secrets, and the whimsical turns of fate. (Spoiler alert: Get ready to spot as many of Taylor's song lyrics and other things connected/inspired by her as you possibly can in every chapter of my story! I must say, my main characters are born Swifties! 😉) TABLE OF CONTENTS: Chapter 1: the 1 Chapter 2: cardigan Chapter 3: the last great american dynasty Chapter 4: exile Chapter 5: my tears ricochet Chapter 6: mirrorball Chapter 7: seven Chapter 8: august Chapter 9: this is me trying Chapter 10: illicit affairs Chapter 11: invisible string Chapter 12: mad woman Chapter 13: epiphany Chapter 14: Betty Chapter 15: peace Chapter 16: hoax Chapter 17: the lakes ©June 7, 2023.
