Astrid had it all figured out - her degree in Engineering, a promising future, and a love she thought would last forever. But success came with sacrifice, and in chasing her dreams, she had to let go of the one person who meant the most, Bryan.
She finds herself drifting through the waves - until she crosses paths with Zeki, someone who knows nothing of her past, her heartache, or the pieces she's still holding together.
In a story of letting go, holding on, and the people we meet when we least expect them, Astrid must face what's buried, and decide what's truly worth rebuilding.
