Amber had given up on love until she met Steve, her father’s old friend, at a BBQ. Despite her initial hesitation, sparks flew between them. “How about dinner? We can call it even,” Steve said after fixing her car. That simple offer led to a whirlwind romance, and six months later, they stood at the altar. “I do,” Amber whispered, overwhelmed with emotion. “I do,” Steve echoed, sealing their love in marriage.
Their wedding night should have been a dream, but Amber stumbled upon something unsettling. Steve sat on the bed, speaking softly to someone who wasn’t there. “I wanted you to see this, Stace. Today was perfect… I just wish you could’ve been here.” Confused, Amber asked, “Who were you talking to?”
Steve revealed his heartbreaking secret—he was speaking to his late daughter, Stacy. “She died in a car accident, with her mom,” he admitted. Though stunned, Amber saw his grief for what it was. “You’re not scaring me away,” she assured him. Together, they vowed to heal, proving love isn’t about perfection but about sharing each other’s scars.
