A Journey Must Be Taken: Playlist

H.L. Howard

This is a contemporary romance Novel, a taboo for following spirituality in the real life, and dairy of pandemic scars, a new love language from music playlist.

Fate and destiny conspire in this first-in-series quest toward happily ever after, featuring a would-be couple.

With a booming professional career, Tauri connects and is bewitched by the young girl, Libi, while he’s still unhappily married. When he makes a wish for her to have a new life, she follows his step to America and agrees to join him as a friend. Only after they meet a few times does Libi confess her love, but she makes the heartbreaking decision to leave when it appears that Tauri’s lofty goals will always stand in their way. with "Easy come, easy go." in her mind, Libi pursues her long-lasting soul connection via the music playlist.

Now divorced, Tauri enters the world of tarot reading for romantic guidance, which leads him on a journey back to Libi in more ways than one—and on numerous occasions.

But are their destinies indeed interwoven? Or is fate having a good time forcing a romance when no-mance is the best path?

The truth lies in the stars and the cards in this epic tale in which the pair’s mistakes are never as big as their desire for each other.
