Rain can wash away what’s past. At least, that is what Katherine wants to believe. She has lost everything that she once held dear: her home, friends, family, and boyfriend. All she has left is a small suitcase full of memories and a lifetime of regret. She knows that, at least partially, their deaths are her fault. Sitting on a park bench getting soaked by the incoming storm, she contemplates her life decisions and how they have all lead to this moment. Is their no hope? Should she just be done with it all? Most importantly, who is this person trudging through the rain towards her?

Over Rain's Edge
Hello dear reader! First, thank you for deciding to click on this ongoing novel. It already means so much! It is my first and I will try to write as much as I can despite the fact that I have a day job. Please do let me know if you have any feedback or thoughts about the story so far. Thank you and I hope you join me on this journey. --- In a digital realm where fantasy and reality intertwine, two souls meet in an online game that transcends distance and convention. Aurora, a successful London lawyer who appears to have the world at her feet, hides her inner turmoil, while Andrei, a globe-trotting financial adviser longing for a true home, finds solace in their virtual connection. What starts as playful camaraderie soon deepens into a poignant romance, with shared quests and whispered secrets composing a bittersweet symphony of desire and vulnerability. Yet, the intimacy nurtured online cannot fully capture the tangible moments of life-the gentle patter of rain on city streets, the comforting sound of a familiar voice, the fleeting magic of a sunrise experienced firsthand. One of them harbours a quiet envy, not of a rival, but of the experiences that remain just out of reach, a silent ache for the parts of life they miss sharing together. As their conversations evolve into a delicate dance of honesty and vulnerability, they confront the challenge of balancing the roles of protector and free spirit in each other's lives. "Over Rain's Edge" becomes a metaphor for the threshold where digital dreams merge with the stark reality of human longing-a modern love story that rejects clichéd tropes in favor of an unvarnished exploration of desire, hope, and heartbreak. In this narrative, romance is portrayed not as a flawless ideal but as a tender, fragile connection that I hope would leave an indelible mark long after you finished the story.
