Across the balconies of a quiet university apartment complex, June Harper and Oliver Reed are drawn together by chance glances, late-night confessions, and a love for words that neither of them expected. June is ambitious, her sights set on a PhD in literature, while Oliver, an engineer by degree but poet at heart, struggles with the weight of his father's memory, his mother's expectations, and the unfinished threads of a relationship he no longer belongs to.
What begins as academic banter across campus hallways soon unfolds into stolen moments under the stars, poems read under trees, and kisses shared at twilight. But love doesn't arrive unchallenged. June must learn to balance her drive for success with the vulnerability of opening her heart, while Oliver is haunted by family loyalty, a complicated breakup, and the fear of losing himself in the process.
As friends fall in and out of love, as old wounds resurface, and as the line between past and future blurs, June and Oliver must ask themselves the hardest question of all:
Can two people, bound by love yet pulled by duty, truly find a forever together?
