Upon arriving, she’s thrilled to reunite with her childhood best friends, Leo and Ava, whose unwavering support feels like a beacon of familiarity in her new world.

The deeper Carrie delves into his past, the more she realizes the depth of his pain and the ripple effect of her actions. Now, it’s up to her to mend what she has unintentionally fractured. Will she rise to the challenge, confronting not only Alex’s demons but her own fears and insecurities? Or will she let her instinct to run away take over, leaving behind yet another unfinished story?
