Julia is in her early twenties when she's dealt a cruel fate dying from brain cancer. But just when everything fades to black, a miracle pulls her back. She's been given a second chance at life. But nothing could have prepared her for what came after.
Charlie was a quiet soul who passed on before his time, with almost no memory of how it happened. He assumes it was just a tragic accident. Now, he’s trapped in a strange place between the living and the dead, a kind of waiting room that exists outside time. And because Julia and Charlie died at the exact same moment, their souls became unexpectedly connected.
Charlie begins to share Julia’s revived body, seeing the world through her eyes like a silent guest. At first, it’s unsettling and confusing. But as time goes on, a strange comfort grows between them. What began as an accident of timing slowly becomes something much more meaningful.
As Julia tries to rebuild her life and reconnect with distant friends, Charlie wrestles with the reality of being caught between worlds. But danger begins to creep into both their lives. And when the threats become real, they must rely on each other to survive. They don’t just share a moment in time but also a purpose, and maybe even something like love.
This novel is more than just a paranormal romance. It’s a tender exploration of grief, hope, and the unexpected beauty of human connection. While the subplot involving underground crime could use more detail, the emotional storytelling makes this a memorable and heartfelt debut.
