He remembers her face. She remembers their dream. The truth they seek is painted on a canvas.
For years, Seth, a brilliant but haunted painter, has been visited by the same recurring dream. It's a vivid, emotional memory of a past connection, yet the details of the dream itself are maddeningly vague. The one thing he has managed to hold onto is her. The beautiful, unforgettable face of the girl who shares his dreamscape. He pours his soul into his artwork, immortalizing her in surreal portraits; a desperate attempt to keep her fixed in reality before the face, too, fades.
Gail, a sharp and ambitious gallery director, lives a meticulous life, guarding a deep, unsettling sense of déjà vu. She is tormented by the same recurring dream as Seth, a vibrant, detailed memory of emotion, setting, and dialogue. However, for Gail, the faces of those in the dream are frustratingly blurry, leaving her with an intense feeling of loss for a connection she can't place.
Their paths finally collide at a high-profile gallery event. Gail is curating a new collection, and the enigmatic star of the show is Seth. The moment she sees his work, the universe shifts. His portraits are exact, stunning depictions of the blurry faces from her dreams.
As Gail champions Seth's work, their professional relationship quickly spirals into a potent, undeniable attraction. They both recognize the threads of their shared dream world, but the missing pieces of their past. His forgotten dream details, her forgotten face prevent them from seeing the full picture.
Will they discover that the person Seth has been searching for on canvas and the person Gail has been searching for in her memory are the same two souls separated by a devastating past? Or will the mystery of their intertwined sleep and awake lives keep them star-crossed forever?
