The story of Jake & Elena begins as all tales of two star-crossed soul-mates does: 1,740 miles and seven states away from one another. Jake was living in Jersey City, New Jersey, while working in New York City. Elena was in Deltona, Florida visiting with her family, while living in Austin, Texas. Was it circumstance or fate that would bring these two together? Ultimately, it was a force stronger than both circumstance and fate. It was the strongest force of all: love; that would bring them together.
