Emily Miller is a living miracle. When she was very young, she was given a second chance at life through a heart transplant-a gift that came at the highest price. Fourteen years later, she is still haunted by the silence of the boy who died so she could breathe. Driven by a debt she can never repay, she travels to the small, grieving town of Pine Falls to find the family of her donor. She expected to find answers. She didn't expect to find Michael Thorne. Michael is a man tethered to the past. He has spent over a decade living in the "after," his life a series of broken circuits and hollow silences. When Emily arrives, claiming to be a journalist, Michael sees a kindred spirit-someone who finally understands the language of loss. As they work together in the quiet shadows of the archives, a profound and terrifying connection sparks between them. For the first time, Michael is looking toward the future, and Emily is feeling a love so deep it feels ancient-as if the heart in her chest already knew him. How do you tell the man you love that the rhythm of your heart is the echo of his brother's ghost?
