I sunce je zvijezda

I sunce je zvijezda

Nicola Yoon

Daniel Bae, who is about to start college, and pragmatic Natasha Kingsley, a native of Jamaica, meet and fall in love one magical day amidst the hustle and bustle of New York City.

Natasha is a girl who believes only in facts and scientific evidence. No fate. No stars. She doesn't get carried away by dreams that never come true. She's definitely not one of those girls who happens to run into a handsome guy on the street, in the middle of the New York traffic, and immediately falls in love with him. Especially not at a time when her family is facing deportation to Jamaica in the next twelve hours. Falling in love with a stranger can't possibly be her story. Or?

Daniel has always been an obedient son, a good student, doing what his parents expected of him. He's not a poet, let alone a dreamer. But when he saw Natasha, everything changed. Something about Natasha made him think that fate had something very special in store for him. Not just for him. And for her too.

The universe is vast, the universe is infinite, and yet everything is connected. Every moment in our lives has led to this present moment. There are millions of possible futures ahead of us. And anyone can, with just one decision, at one moment, turn into a parallel world of another life. But which of them will actually come true?
