After the tragic loss of her parents in a devastating car accident when she was just a child, she and her older brother Jason clung to each other, building a life from the fragments of their shattered world.

When Wei Long first hears Kasi singing to a group of children, her voice carried a haunting beauty that stirs something deep within him. Will Wei Long's relentless pursuit of Kasi's heart be enough to mend the fractures of her past? Or will the weight of their differences keep them forever apart?
