Two sisters share one body, one life, and an unbreakable bond—but when their bodies begin to fail them, Grace and Tippi must confront the possibility that staying together might mean losing each other forever. This achingly beautiful story explores what it truly means to be connected to another person, the sacrifices we make for love, and the heartbreaking moments when love alone isn't enough to rewrite our fate. Crossan crafts an intimate, deeply moving narrative that celebrates their sisterhood while grappling with impossible choices and the kind of grief that comes before goodbye. Prepare to have your heart completely shattered and painstakingly pieced back together.
Reading soundtrack
Intimate indie-folk and soft pop exploring intertwined souls, longing, and bittersweet devotion. Think Bon Iver's vulnerability, Phoebe Bridgers' melancholy, and The National's emotional depth. Acoustic, poetic, contemporary—capturing the ache of impossible choices and love that transcends boundaries.
