@Pfroggy1 So how about this my friend. The idea is somewhat of time travel, but with a twist. It comes from a book series, but this should work too.
This is the book way. M/c does some kind act that accidentally causes their death, leaving god/deity to give them another chance at life. m/c wakes up to find that she is in the body of someone that was about to die and soul has already left and y/c is her lover. This can either take place modern day or in the very far back past.
Now that I think about it, I'm gonna make this an interest thread too.
