Story Notes

Hello, and welcome to my story. 🤍

Before you begin reading, I just want to say thank you for giving this book a chance. Whether you found it by accident or clicked because the cover caught your attention, I’m happy you’re here.

This is my very first novel, so I’m still learning and growing as a writer. There may be mistakes, and that’s okay. Every chapter I write helps me become a better storyteller.

This story is a work of fiction. The characters, places, and events come from my imagination. Any similarities to real people or real events are purely coincidental.

This book is about grief, healing, family, friendship, and love. It is a slow-burn romance, so the relationship won’t happen overnight. I want the characters to grow before they fall in love.

Please be patient with the story. Some chapters are happy, some are heartbreaking, and some may make you smile. Every chapter is part of Zoryana’s journey.

I ask one favor from you: please don’t post spoilers in the comments so everyone can enjoy the story the same way you did.

Your votes, comments, and feedback truly mean a lot to me. Reading your thoughts encourages me to keep writing.

Thank you again for being here.

I hope Zoryana’s story stays with you long after you finish the last chapter.

Happy reading.

Christ-love .S

Summary

“I am not a bad person. Am I?” At nineteen, Zoryana Miroslava thought her biggest challenge would be performing the best skating routine of her life. She was wrong. One missed moment changes everything. A birthday becomes the day she loses her mother, and the guilt that follows convinces her she’ll never step onto the ice again. Years later, a new city, a new family, and a promise to herself slowly begin to pull her back to life. But healing isn’t easy when the past refuses to let go. Then she meets Jayden a quiet hockey player carrying wounds of his own. She thinks he’s annoying. He thinks she’s impossible. Neither of them expects their lives to become connected. This isn’t a story about perfect people. It’s about grief, second chances, family, forgiveness, and a love that changes everything. Because sometimes the deepest love stories don’t end the way we hope… And sometimes the most beautiful stories are the ones that break our hearts.

Author’s Notes

Before you begin this story ,I want to ask you something .

Have you ever loved someone and still lost them ?

Have you ever looked at your life and thoughts that if one moment had changed , everything after would be different ?

Do you think every lost story deserves a happy ending?

Or do you think some stories are only beautiful because they ended?

Tell me if two people loved each other with everything they have , does that mean they are meant to stay together ?

If someone leaves, does it always mean they stopped loving?

If someone survives something painful , does that automatically make them strong ?

How many versions of ourselves disappear because of one decision?

How many times can a person change before becoming someone they do not recognize ? Would you still choose love if someone told it would not last ?Would you still open your heart if you knew one day it would break?

Would you hold on ? or would you walk away first ?

People say life is made of choice .

I disagree .

I think life is made of moments .

Small moments

Missed calls.

Words we never said .

Birthdays.

People arriving at the wrong time .

And suddenly

Everything changes.

This story is not here to teach you how to love .
