"What's so interesting by the pond? You're not meeting up with any mythical creatures, are you?", Agnes's mother jokingly asked one night, as they were doing the dishes.
"Actually, yeah, I am", she replied.
"Yeah? What kind of mythical creatures?"
Agnes, an aspiring rock n roll guitarist, singer, and songwriter has grown up with a wild, creative imagination like no other. To cope with her rough childhood, she always turned to fantasy, and daydreaming. At 18, she still hasn't grown out of it. To deal with her depression, and anxiety, Agnes used to take long walks in nature, specifically outside in back by her pond, where she imagined a whole fantasy realm that conjured up just for her. One night, Agnes thinks and speaks it into existence, and the next time she goes for a walk out back by the pond, she gets trapped in the beautiful realm that she created. It's so beautiful, enchanting, and she has the most charming, lovely man of her dreams. Will Agnes ever come back home?
Seven years ago, Tristan Knight walked away from the love of his life, Serenity Harris, without a word or a backwards glance. No goodbye. No Dear John letter. No words of apologies or excuses. She'd woken up one morning to an empty bed, her body sore; her hair wild and unkempt from their tempestuous love-making the night before. That night had been the first time Tristan told her he loved her. Their courtship had started fast. It took four hours for him to get her into bed and take her virginity and one night for her to fall head over heels in love with him.
The year leading up to their final night together had been full of twists and turns, ups and downs. But she'd thought they had finally gotten to a place where they full understood and valued one another. So what happened? Why did he leave? And why had he come back today of all days? Her wedding day. To his former best friend and band mate, Nyle Wentworth.
Nyle has been there for Serenity ever since Tristan left her heart in irrepairable pieces. Nyle loved her back to life and in spite of her love for Tristan, she found herself drawn to him. Now they're about to get married. Nyle won Serenity fair and square and he doesn't feel bad about actively pursuing her, falling in love with her, marrying her, or spending the rest of his life with her. He and Tristan were friends but that's all in the past. And that's where he intends to keep it.
All Serenity wants to do is to marry Nyle, be happy, and go on with her life but the reappearance of the love of her life is making that more than difficult. Tristan is back, he wants what's his, and he doesn't care who he has to destroy or kill to have it. Now that Tristan's back, Serenity finds herself torn between what her heart wants and who her head knows is the better choice.
