One second stole the world.
Now it may be the only moment they have left.
Ava Torres has spent her life racing the clock as a paramedic, saving lives one heartbeat at a time. But when a brilliant white-blue flash tears open the night sky, everything around her freezes in place—people, wind, shattered glass—locked inside a single unmoving second.
Everyone except her.
And one soldier.
Eli Donovan has no memory of how he survived the impossible moment the world stopped. All he knows is this suspended second is unraveling—cracks of white light creeping through buildings, reality thinning like worn fabric. And the only other person who can still move is the woman who found him standing in the silence.
Together, Ava and Eli must navigate a city trapped between time and oblivion, uncover the truth behind the cosmic event that froze the world, and confront the terrifying possibility that this fragile second is collapsing around them. As the danger intensifies, so does the connection between them—an unexpected bond formed in the space where breath, fear, and hope all exist at once.
But the closer they get to the truth, the more Ava suspects Eli is hiding a secret he doesn't even know he carries—one that could rewrite everything she believes about fate, sacrifice, and the moment that changed the world.
A gripping blend of romance, suspense, and sci-fi mystery, Before You Vanish is a heart-pounding story about two strangers fighting for answers—and for each other—in a world where time has already run out.
