With zero memories of her past and the heart-wrenching loss of her parents, she clings to her grandmother, sister, and aunt-the only family she has left. They struggle to rebuild their lives, start over, facing numerous obstacles in an unfamiliar land. Despite their hardships, Camila remains a beacon of hope and positivity. Her unwavering love and radiance, boundless optimism, and generous spirit leaves a print on everywhere she goes.
In a world devoid of light and love, he finds solace in the shadows of his dark past. The deep seated resentment in his childhood a master of spreading misery and darkness anywhere he goes. Rayan Haythem loathes all things good, arrogant and scornful, he finds satisfaction in the sufferings of others. He found comfort in the fact that hate is all that he can give out and believes that he only had little to no humanity left in him.
When the two cross paths, not once and not twice, could it really be a coincidence or the bridge between the darkness and and sunshine collide? Are the two souls destined to cross paths again or are they destined to transform each other's lives forever?
"Even in the darkest times, a single ray of light can illuminate the path forward.."
