Meet Me When My Heart Stops

Emery is just five years old when standing on a thorn first triggers a condition that sees her heart stop beating in moments of shock.

What if your soulmate could only ever be the love of your afterlife?

Emery's heart could stop at any moment...

If the people around her act quickly enough, it can be restarted, but in the meantime she is briefly technically dead.

Each time Emery's heart stops, she meets Nick, who helps people accept their death and move on. Usually he only meets people once, but with Emery he makes a connection.

Although Emery lives life to the full, a part of her is always waiting for her heart to stop - so that she can see Nick again.

But Emery and Nick can never share more than a few fleeting moments - because if they were to be together, it would mean the end of Emery's life...
