In the winter of 2099, Hana searches the ruins of an abandoned observatory for clues that might save a dimming world. Each long December steals more daylight, and the future depends on holding onto whatever light remains. When she uncovers a strange telescope with a glowing message from the past, she begins exchanging notes with James, a young stargazer living in 1965 at the dawn of the space race.
Separated by time but linked through the stars, Hana and James trade hope across distant winters. While they study an unusual celestial pattern, they uncover a forgotten alignment that could help Hana’s team restore a sliver of winter brightness. But trusting the impossible becomes harder as doubt and loss close in, and the sky above her city fades a little more each night.
Through quiet messages written in starlight, trust grows where reason shouldn’t. Hana starts to believe again, not just for her world, but for a connection that feels unreal and somehow true. And James, pressed beneath expectations he never asked for, begins to see how one December sky might shape a future he’ll never live to witness.
If love and belief can cross time, could the stars carry a miracle strong enough to reach a world still waiting for dawn?

This book continues the Everwish Noel journey where time is just a whisper, and love is everlasting.
In the heart of the holiday season, the Everwish Noel series brings five clean time-travel romances where connection slips past clocks and calendars. In each story, a mysterious Everwish box appears when two people from different eras are meant to cross paths. Through old letters, flickering light, winter stars, or a forgotten keepsake on a dusty shelf, they share hope and quiet longing moments that feel impossible yet deeply real.
These standalone tales carry nostalgia and winter warmth, each wrapped in a touch of Christmas wonder.
Can a single wish reach across centuries and find the one meant to hear it?
