September 1939.
The world had spiraled into a dark hole of war and death. Many were forced to hide from the dominating Germans, but there were more than a few that stood up to them. 
The Americans joined the war in 1941 after Pearl Harbor. 
Now, it was the beginning of the end for the Germans.
In this world of prejudice, is there any room for hope?

"The point of life is to find your purpose, and I'll be damned if I don't find mine." 
-Armina Soules

An ambitious, stubborn, German-American girl with a bad attitude wants to mean something. After all this time, 20 years, she wants to be something other than nothing. She wants to live. 
We all know life turns things upside down, so will she find what she wants? Or will she crash and burn?

Jospeh Capurso has always dreamt of a fresh start ever since immigrating from Italy to the United Stated when he was a young boy. It's difficult to start anew with a tragic past and hovering regrets. Nevertheless, Joseph continues to adapt the best he can to his different life in America. With his sketch pad and charcoal pencil, The Bronx is his biggest inspiration for becoming an Architecture. If it weren't for his unforgiving father breathing down his neck practically every second, he could move on with his life. But with family to protect and support,his dream of becoming a architecture remains faint. Louise Decker, a bright, inquisitive writer believes she's destined for more than working under the nose of her cold step father. She has big dreams of becoming a war correspondent and journalist just like her biggest role model Peggy Hull. It's hard to follow her dreams when society expects her to follow the stereotypical norms of a housewife. Louise yearns for more out of life rather than staying at home to raise children and watch over the house. Louise wants to share and explore the undiscovered stories in which the world holds so deeply. On the very day Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japan, Jospeh and Louise's world collide forming an undeniable bond. Even though both come from different wealth classes. The two who are still so young and innocent are forced to open their eyes to a cruel reality of their devastating world. A world war is no place for two innocent people longing to follow their dreams. Things get even more complicated when they're both forced to go on an unpredictable journey to find hidden treasure to just keep the people they love alive. After all the two would go through thick and thin just to keep their loved ones safe. They'd stick up for each other From Dusk Till Dawn.

Russia... that is where everything started. The perfect snow in winter, the perfect house that kept you warm and cosy, and for Octavia Zorina Radmilla it was the only real home she had even known. She was only sixteen but in 1784 many people were already wed or soon to be, Octavia was one of those soon to be types. A humble rock upon her finger, looping her pale skinned ring finger, with some sort of gold plated metal. Octavia Milo. The name didn't quite seem to fit but what is a name other than a way to identify a body. She would wear the name with pride, knowing she would be the talk of the town for marrying Spyder Dragan Milo. A dark soul, or so it appeared. Ever since the boy had been born something hung over his head like a shadow but that is what made him so wonderful to young Octavia. A curse, a curse with no rules, or at least rules that always changed. No matter how hard the two teens tried, there seemed to be no loopholes. We won't start at the beginning, that won't make sense, at least not this time. Spyder and Octavia were doomed to be this way, living life after life trying to find one another but every time they remembered who they were, they would die... or at least one of them would, leaving the other two options, to continue until their next life cycle or to end it and try again. Of course it is never that simple. Especially when someone keeps changing the rules. The only stable thing they knew, was that they will always remember before they die, whoever had died first the previous life, would be the first to remember. and they would always find each other. No matter how long it took.
