A girl in a world full of people-yet completely alone. Too sensitive for a world that is too cruel, she feels everything... a little too deeply. She sees Jay-not as a star, but as something familiar. A light in the dark. She falls for him-someone she can never reach. So she writes. He sings. She writes. Not knowing-their words are meant for each other. Not knowing-their paths were never truly separate. Some connections don't begin in this life. They continue. They meet-not just to love, but to heal. To build the home they once dreamed of. Because promises are meant to be kept. Even if it takes lifetimes. Some connections never break. No matter how many times they are cut, they find their way back. In this lifetime, they are given one last chance to complete what was left unfinished. But tell me-when something has been broken so many times... can it finally stay whole? Before you begin-do you believe in dreams? Because what if-some dreams are not dreams at all? Read... and maybe-you'll never look at love, or the person you hold closest, the same way again.
