Nearly two years after proposing to Blessica, the woman he met in Twickenham City, Mississippi, she vanished without saying a word, despite once capturing his heart like no one else. Though deeply hurt, Everton had long known that love for him always arrived with twists. One late fall night, a phone call from Blessica forces him to confront old wounds. The question remains: Can the power of love fix it all?
