"Finding Joy Beyond Diagnosis" tells the story of two former lovers, separated by time and life's unexpected turns, who find each other again under very different circumstances.
In their teens, they were each other's first love-a connection that seemed unbreakable, but life pulled them apart. Six years later, after both enduring personal journeys, they cross paths again when the guy adds the girl on social media. He's now a father, having gone through a marriage and painful breakup. His daughter is his world, though his heart still carries the weight of past regrets.
On the other side, the girl has transformed. She's pursued a nursing career, focusing on caring for others, but her life too isn't without complications. She's in a steady relationship, though she's unsure if it's the right one. She's content with her accomplishments but feels that something is missing.
As they reconnect, old feelings surface, yet the realities of their lives have changed them. The guy sees the woman he once loved, but now with different eyes, as a strong, independent figure who has her own path. The girl finds herself drawn to him in a way she hadn't expected, but she's also hesitant. Their shared history carries both joy and pain, and they must face the complexities of love, regret, and the changes time has brought.
The story is not about rekindling an old flame but discovering the new joy they can find in each other's presence. Through their connection, they learn that love doesn't always follow a straight path-it can heal, transform, and sometimes, provide a new beginning. But only if they allow themselves to embrace change and the people they've become.
*They hated her at first... but they had no idea who she really was.*
...........
Serena Carter was just trying to live-trying to find peace in the mess that was her life. But one accident changed everything.
Abandoned. Alone. She was sent to live with the Morettis-four brothers and a father who wanted nothing to do with her. She was the reminder of their mother's biggest betrayal, the stain on their perfect legacy. Ten months. That's all she had to survive before she turned eighteen and walked away for good. Easy, right?
Wrong.
Because the Morettis might have convinced themselves they hated her, but hate was a tricky thing-it turned into obsession, into protectiveness, into something none of them were ready for. They thought they knew her, thought she was just a mistake that could be ignored.
They had no idea.
Because Serena had secrets-ones even she didn't fully understand. And in a world where power was everything, she was about to become the most dangerous piece on the board.
She wasn't just a mistake. She was a Moretti.
