A Matter of Life and Death

Overview

Haya's convinced she's going to die before thirty, so she's living like it — loud, reckless, completely unfiltered, no brakes. Then one of her stunts goes wrong and lands her in the ER... right into Youssef. A heart surgeon. Calm, controlled, lives by a schedule. The human opposite of her in every way. Naturally, she decides he's her destiny. What follows is chaotic, funny, and a little bit ridiculous — neon nights, strange rituals, the kind of moments you can't plan for. Her countdown keeps ticking. His walls keep cracking. And somewhere in between, they both start remembering what it actually feels like to be alive. A love story for anyone who's ever felt like too much.
