In geometry, parallel lines are always the same distance apart and will never meet. This is a story of two people who, like those lines, are always so close but never together.
Adelaide Brooks, known as Addie to her closest friends, is a brilliant business tycoon who sees people only as business associates, unable to form meaningful relationships beyond her circle of three friends. She values solitude above all else and finds comfort in being alone.
Sydney Moreno, known as Syd, is a sought-after actress adored by everyone around her. With her striking beauty, vibrant personality, and undeniable talent in her craft, she lives a life most would envy. Syd is sugar, spice, and everything nice.
But what happens when their paths cross? Could Syd break down the walls Addie has built around herself? Will Addie face her inner struggles and take a chance on Syd? Or will the two continue to walk through life in the same direction, always near but never touching, forever lost in their parallel lines?
This is a slow-burn, pining romance story. Please skip if angst is not your cup of tea.
