Leila Aurelie, the angelic heir to Skyline Kingdom, has always lived a life of duty, bound to a world of calm perfection where emotions are predictable and desires are tamed. But as she prepares to marry and take on her kingdom's legacy, a quiet yearning for something more-something real-takes root. When a mysterious voice guides her to the forbidden Box of Ascendancy, Leila is cast to Earth, where life is chaotic, raw, and heartbreakingly beautiful.
On a desolate bridge, she meets Josh Brown, a young man hanging at the edge of hope and despair. Together, they embark on a transformative week, delving into the depths of human connection, mental health struggles, and the heart-stirring power of love. As Leila experiences the messy beauty of life, she's forced to confront the limits of her angelic purpose and question where she truly belongs.
In a story of romance, fantasy, and self-discovery, Leila faces a life-altering decision: return to the perfection of Skyline Kingdom or risk everything for a life-and love-that is achingly, beautifully flawed.

"Do you think you've lived a good life?" I ask
He looks at me, and I see the pain in his eyes, the vulnerability he rarely shows. It's like the ones I saw that night at the bridge. His voice cracks as he answers, "Not really. No."

Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued
