Natasha is a girl who doesn’t believe in fate, only facts. She’s not the type of girl who pictured herself meeting a boy in New York City and falling in love with him. A boy, whose family is about to be deported to Jamaica, no less.
Daniel is a boy whose always been a good student and lived up to his parents’ high expectations and is on the straight and narrow.
When Natasha and Daniel cross paths, however, everything stops them in their tracks and the only thing they see is each other. The two of them wonder what is to become of them and if the universe will allow their lives to intertwine.
