Hmm ok good point. Instead…

After Poppy the Quilldresser suffers the loss of her elderly friend, his hunky Blacksmith son moves in next door and awakens a cascade of repressed memories. In order to escape her painful flashbacks and befriend her new neighbor, Poppy must learn to accept her grief.

Rowen Ember is the descendent of an ancient martyr, much to her chagrin. Now, a puppeteer is rewriting history by erasing her people's memories of the Great Battle. Rowen must confront the past and find the truth of her ancestor’s deeds, or suffer the same sacrificial fate.

Perhaps not. My notes today have mostly been on vagueness so I was shooting for hyper-specificity 😆

I was thinking the same thing, but worried that it might read as his memories, or both of their memories, etc etc. Good note though, it is TOIGHT on character count

Clarity:

After Poppy the Quilldresser suffers the loss of her elderly best friend, his hunky Blacksmith son moves in next door and awakens a cascade of repressed memories within her. Poppy must embark on an emotional journey to accept her grief, irrevocably tying herself to her new neighbor. 💜🪶
