"To get over one man you need to get under another".
The meme that changed my life.

He's a man on a mission. On a mission to find the only woman he ever craved. The only woman that makes him whole.
Bouncing from city to city, town to town over the past fifteen years lands him a job in the quaint town of Willow Palms. There he finds her. His one and only.
Can he convince her that they are meant to be? What happens when he looks into his own eyes?
