But as they navigate personal ambition and shared dreams, life delivers a cruel twist—Caleb’s terminal diagnosis shatters their future.

With time slipping away, they must confront reality. Caleb fights to leave behind a legacy for Kayla in his final days while Kayla wrestles with the impossible task of learning to let go.

When love and loss collide, what's left behind?

A short and heartwarming love story of Celeb and Kayla. Their journey unfolds beautifully—from childhood friendship to teenage infatuation, and ultimately, a deep, enduring love. This audiobook had me smiling throughout and truly pulled at my heartstrings, especially at the end.

I sincerely hope the author considers writing a second part, told from the wife’s perspective— of years later
