In this spiritual and captivating story, inspired by true events, a young woman, Salem Ryan Rose, who has been drowning in depression and pain for years, decides that it is time to set out on a quest for healing and peace. She knows she can no longer avoid the pain; she must face it, otherwise, she is confident her life will end soon from heartbreak.

She made a promise years ago to Sam, to write a love story - their love story - hers and Sam's, and so, this is where she begins her search for healing, by picking up a pen, pulling out her old journals, and allowing herself to remember everything.

Salem knows that she must go back to her memories - memories that are painful to visit - and remember all that has happened, a daunting and scary task to complete.

On this journey inside her dreams and memories, she visits her younger self and young Sam. She is forced to open doors that were closed long ago to experience love and loss, like it's the first time, and see painful moments with clarity - moments from early childhood leading into her adulthood; traumatic events such as being in love with an addict, that leads up to the most tragic, life changing moment: The death of her first love, Sam.

How could she finish this love story without him?

She knows that the only one way out is through the darkness, so she sinks into everything that she has avoided feeling for so long, to find the light.
