As Casey helps Theodore get back on his feet, she's pulled into a world of chaos and creativity, discovering that life can be a different song indeed. But will her efforts spark a connection, or will Theodore's ego get in the way? One thing's certain: Casey's life will never be so ordinary again. *** NOTICE: Faster updates available on Wattpad.
