I invite You to the world of Deb Storm and Kader Gökyüzü, two broken-hearted souls who had gone through life guarding their broken pieces, all the while hoping to find someone who would mend those pieces together. This story takes place in the beautiful land of Turkey. It begins and ends in the magnificent city of Istanbul... What lays in the past of a person cannot be changed. It cannot be altered. It cannot be persuaded to disappear into nonexistence. Nor should it. The past is as much a part of a person as the future that is yet to be laid out ahead of them. It is in the days that live in the memory of a person that enable the person to decide who they are and who they still have a chance to become. Deb Storm was a perfect example of that... Hesitant at first, Deb agrees to travel to Cappadoccia with one reluctant yet mysterious travel companion, who soon opens her heart to Turkey's culture, its history, and so much more. All because she chose to honor her lifelong dream to one day stand on the breathtaking isle of Maiden's Tower. I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Mary Bloyd, @MonicaRita1943 , without whom this story would not have reached its destined spot on paper. And, to the lady that inspired each and every word of this tale, Çok seni seviyorum❤️. 🖋JK
