25 Years To Life

By CJ Ives Lopez

Two hearts, one summer, and a secret that could change everything. Twenty-five years later, will a daughter's discovery reunite old flames or burn their world down?

Shelly's world crumbles when Todd, her long-time boyfriend, leaves for Italy, shattering their summer plans and her heart. Struggling with heartbreak, her life takes a turn when she meets Esteban, a compassionate ranch hand from Mexico, who brings unexpected comfort and joy. Their summer love blooms rapidly, filled with dreams of a future together, until a tragic call pulls Esteban back to Mexico.

Fast-forward twenty-five years. After her father's sudden death, Estelle, Shelly's daughter, uncovers a startling family secret. Haunted by doubts about who her father is, Estelle discovers hints of her mother's past romance with Esteban. Determined to find the truth, Estelle orchestrates a reunion, bringing Esteban back to face her mother, igniting old passions and unresolved questions.

As the past confronts the present, Shelly and Esteban find themselves drawn to each other once more, their connection undimmed by time yet shadowed by the secrets they carry. Meanwhile, Estelle grapples with the revelations about her family, torn between her longing for the truth and the potential upheaval of her world.

Can love rediscover its path after twenty-five years of silence, or will the truth be too much for all their hearts?
