Summary
El Hopper was dead.
Every version of her she had been, who she had become, who she never would have the chance to be if it hadn't been for them, was gone. She was dead. Or at least, that is what she needed them to believe.
El lost everything that night in November. Her family, her friends, and the love of her life. The future that should have theirs, that she had always known they would never get the chance to have. This is the story of the years that follow, a story of how she survives. How they both survive. A story of love lost, of a love enduring. And a love that will help them find their way back to each other.

Summary
He reaches for the glass of wine again. He takes another swallow. And then—
It happens. It’s nothing. It’s a flicker, a second, a feeling at first. The hair at the base of his neck feels like its been grazed, electric and immediate and impossible—so, utterly impossible. Because he hasn’t felt this since—since—
Mike readjusts in his seat, just a little. Fingers brush his, feather light. And then the world tilts, and he’s swallowed into the darkness. He hardly has the time to breathe before he looks up and sees her. Not a hallucination, not a stranger on the street with the same hair, or the same style. Her.
El.
