As it turned out, it was the best decision I ever made. Because it led me to Tessa. She was everything I never knew I needed—bright, funny, unbelievably beautiful, and made just for me. She made me feel alive again, breathing life back into me when I was dying inside. I used to think we met by chance, but I'm more convinced than ever that nothing about us is a coincidence. It's fate, destiny, or whatever the hell you want to call it.
