Love, Sorrow, and the In-Between

Fuyuko never knew love doesn't show up the same way for everyone and that it can take as many forms as dreams themselves... until Zoe crashes through her walls and into her life.



When Zoe finds herself with a terminal diagnosis, she decides that she will make a simple bucket list, and she will not tell her best friends she is dying so they will not treat her differently. But this leaves Zoe with the problem of who will help with her bucket list.



Fuyuko's life has fallen so deep into a pattern that she doesn't know she has even fallen. When a young woman named Zoe, who she doesn't know, informs her that she is dying. Fuyuko becomes the one person she trusts with her secret as her new friend, even though Fuyuko doesn't want to. But something deep inside her says to do it, so she does, and just like that, Zoe lifts Fuyuko's life into a life with meaning.



What was supposed to be a bucket list adventure of karaoke and horseback riding turns into a love story of platonic soul mates as Fuyuko and Zoe's lives twist together. For the first time Fuyuko feels like her life has meaning, a reason to live. It feels like life is being breathed into her, as it is being pulled out of Zoe.



Join the adventure of platonic soul mates in Love, Sorrow, and the In-Between to see that there are many ways to love and to live.



(Tropes: Found family, bucket list, soul mates, grumpy sunshine, slice of life, one bed.)
