She playfully pushes his face away from hers making him laugh. "I'm serious. Like forever and ever and ever-" but she cuts him off as she rolls her eyes and kisses him again.

Some people spend their whole lives looking for love. They found it in the same place they found home. What started as a friendship turned into stolen glances, secret feelings, and a love neither of them expected. Then one chaotic, loud-mouthed best friend somehow became part of the picture, too. Now they're building a life together, proving that sometimes love doesn't come in twos. Sometimes it comes in threes. Three hearts. One home.

Halle and Issac both have secrets of their own, do they keep running or risk everything for the one person? Because love isn't just about falling. Sometimes, it's about letting yourself be unmasked.
