Clementine Adams was in love, but war tore her beloved Jasper Whitlock away. When news of his death shattered her heart, she too perishedβonly to be reborn, a phoenix from her own ashes. Centuries later, still untouched by time, she finds herself in Forks, Washington. There, a familiar gaze meets hers, stirring a hope she thought lost forever. Jasper Hale, the man she loved in another life, stands before her. Is this a second chance at a love enchanted by fate, or a cruel twist of destiny?
The oppressive humidity of a bygone summer clung to Clementine Adams as she lay in a sea of dandelions, the sun a warm embrace on her skin. Her eyes, closed in contented bliss, fluttered open when a shadow fell upon her.
"No greeting?" a familiar voice chuckled. Jasper Whitlock stood over her, his heart already quickening at the sight of her.
"You blocked my sun," she teased, a soft smile gracing her lips. He knelt beside her, his hand finding hers. The world felt perfect, a silent promise hanging in the air.
Then, he spoke, and the world shattered. "I'm joining the war."
