Hannah Stone is your everyday girl next door. A curvy brunette whose smile can light up a room and her big grey eyes bring even the strongest man to his knees. Hannah has the perfect combination of intelligence, good looks, and humility. She has always been faithful to what she believes in, has always kept her life relatively simple and free of drama and has always followed her heart.

"Are you ready?" Alice asks; a tear rolls down her cheek.

"I have to be,"

It's not the physical act of turning off a machine that plays on a doctor's mind; it's the events that follow. Everyone reacts differently, but the emotions are all the same. Relief, sadness, regret, and acceptance all come to the surface one after the other. But one emotion takes hold more so than all the others. Fear. Fear of the unknown.

Hannah watches the doctor go through a routine that he has done many times before, and it ends the same way every time. Somebody dies.

What happens next will make Hannah question everything she knows about life, death, and friendship.

No romance is free of tragedy.
