Suddenly Maddy is right there... in her own future. And itās all wrong, yet again.
It happens to her every time. When the kisses lead to the bedroom, just when she thinks she might have found the one... Just for a split second, Maddy disappears, and she finds that sheās living her own life. But ten years from now.
Sheās only in the future for a little while. But each time, itās long enough to know that she doesnāt want to be any of those versions of Maddy. Because every man she falls for seems to lead her to a life that is just... wrong.
Until she meets Oliver. And the vision of what lies ahead for them is happy. A little girl runs around, giggle, her braids flying behind her. She has eyes just like Oliverās.
Thereās just one catch. Itās clear that finding her way to that future isnāt straightforward. So if Maddy wants the life sheās seeing with Oliver in ten yearsā time, she may have no other option than to break his heart right now...
Would you destroy your happiness now if there was a chance it could give you the perfect future?
