From the author of National Parks and other bestselling tales of heartbreak comes a contemporary romance that challenges timelines and seeks a forever status.
In a split timeline, we would have been together—no matter the opposition.
In another life, the universe would have narrowed until there was nothing left but the love between us. But reality has shifted, and I’m left wandering the echoes of a world I don’t recognize.
I’m drowning in a history that’s been erased for everyone but me. The hard truth? I wasn’t supposed to survive the switch. Now, I wake each morning to the cold press of a diamond ring and the unfamiliar rhythm of a man’s breath at my neck. The reflection in the mirror claims my face, but I don’t know who this woman is supposed to be. I am a ghost haunting my reflection.
Worst of all, you’re here too, Bea. You move through this life like a sun unaware of its own gravity, completely oblivious to the secrets we once shared—the kind that would have ruined us both if we’d been caught. To you, I’m just a stranger in a crowded room. To me, you are the only heartbreak that feels like home.
I face the silence in your eyes, and I have to ask: Can love survive in a world where it was never meant to exist?
