Standing on top of the multi-storey car park, Layla looks down and she knows that in five seconds she can end her pain and be reunited with the man she loves . . .
Layla and Scott believed their love would last forever; that they would grow old together and have years of happiness ahead. How wrong they were.
Their love story is a fairytale, the beginning of a beautiful dream. From the moment their eyes first meet, there is an undeniable spark. People search for years for The One; Layla finds Scott by chance. Surely it has to be fate.
If only her strict Indian parents could see it that way.
A brave Layla goes against tradition and family loyalty to be with Scott. With a heavy heart she leaves behind her family and all she has ever known. She turns her back on an arranged marriage only to face racism and ignorance from those who disapprove of her interracial relationship. Layla has her dream man; however, he comes at a price.
But nothing lasts forever. Their eternal love shatters. Their fairytale ends.
Unexpectedly, Layla finds herself alone in a nightmare, in the darkest of places and without the man she loves. She loses herself, her identity, the person she once was.
Layla's story is not just one of loss and heartache, but of courage, strength, and the unbreakable bond that true love can bring.
