Summary
People think grief is a storm. For Pearl, it was fog.
Thick, silent fog that made her forget what the sun looked like.
After a devastating loss, Pearl drifts through her days feeling detached from everything and everyone.The only thing that cuts through the fog is a scruffy rescue dog named Tilly, who seems to understand sadness better than people do. Through late-night walks and quiet moments with Tilly, Pearl slowly begins to reconnect with the world.
Then there's Gem.
Gem. Their friendship starts with awkward conversations and gentle check-ins, but gradually grows into something deeper. As feelings develop, Pearl faces a difficult question: Is it okay to keep loving and living when someone important could leave you again?
