〚 True story 〛
She's more focused than ever, fresh out of high school, leaving her home country to pursue her chances at a medical career abroad.
She is so determined to achieve everything she wants, that nothing can break her focus.
Not her best friend who is struggling with her mental health.
Not her family that is going through a rough patch.
Not even a certain set of big emerald orbs that comes along the way.
That is, if she is strong enough to resist the magnetic pull they seem to have on her.
Her mind is hungry for success. But what is her heart aching for?
Lydia's true story as a 19-year old girl pursuing her dreams, her wants and her needs. A true story about romance, family issues, learning to set boundaries, complicated friendships and betrayal.

Until a year ago, Kacey's life had always been easy. But when it rains, it pours, and he loses what always seemed a given. A year and a half later, he has rebuilt his life and adjusted to the new circumstances as the single caregiver for his best friend's child in New York. But something is still missing.
Luca's life has never been easy. Tragedy left her alone, and growing up in the home and foster care system took a toll on her. But against all odds, she has managed to get accepted into the training program for her dream job, a job that brings happiness and joy into people's lives - and to hers.
When they are brought together by chance, they both have to face their past, their fears and their hopes.
