When Brecks collides with Jamie during a jog, it's meant to be—except Jamie's eyes immediately land on B's best friend instead, and suddenly the person who makes her heart race becomes the person she can't live without. Bound by midnight conversations, shared playlists, and a connection that refuses to die, they spend years circling each other, finding their way back together through chance encounters and stolen moments, only to be torn apart by terrible timing again and again. This is the kind of angsty, addictive love story that will have you believing in soulmates while simultaneously breaking your heart—because sometimes the right person at the wrong time is the cruelest fate of all. Get ready for a gorgeously emotional ride about learning when to finally stop waiting and start fighting for the love that's been there all along.

Indie folk and soft R&B for years of almost-moments and late-night confessions. Warm acoustic guitars, vulnerable vocals, and that ache of loving someone you can't quite reach. Think Bon Iver, The Head and the Heart, SZA—bittersweet, intimate, cyclical.
