I have but one heart to give. Let it be given totally to the one person in life that it is meant for. The one person who can really appreciate the capacity of me. Let not, my love be wasted. I want to give love until it hurts. Give love... until I can give no more. Give love to the one made just for me.

This is the story of Shay Lance. A beautiful black woman who has all she wants, all she needs, but... the man to spend the rest of her life with. She won't settle for less. She's done that over and over. First with the man she married. He fell short in so many ways. Then through numerous relationships that ultimately only satisfied her sexually. Eventually leading to only sexual relationships. Hollow and meaningless in substance, but so gratifying sexually. Subsequently, she thought that this was all that she deserved. Until... she met the hunk in the elevator. Everette. Then she knew that there was more for her in life. There was extreme happiness staring her in the face, in the form of a man... her soul mate.

Can she be happy?

This is the story of Everette Renard. A handsome black man, who is missing so much in life. Including his wife and child. It was a devastating blow. He didn't think he could survive. He muttered through the days. Struggling to hold on, he headed back to work hoping to become functional once more. As time passed, his human body had an ever present need to be satisfied... and he did so with a female shadow of no importance. Not that he wanted to see her that way. He had no emotions. The physical need was all he had. He felt that he had nothing more to offer. Driftwood. That's what he was. That's all he would ever be. So he thought. Until all of that changed, that one day on the elevator. He knew instantly, that he had met his soul mate. Potential happiness was now in the picture. When before, there was only drudgery. Is there a potential for him to be happy, loved and satisfied?

Was this just a chance meet? Or were they thrown together by the stars. Are they truly each others soul mate? Was this destine to happen or is this just an illusion? When they wake up will they find that it's all real? What obstacles will they face trying to reach this goal to eternal happiness? Will they be able to withstand the hurdles that keep popping up as they desperately try to find out... if fate is on their side... or if ultimately, this is their destiny.
