Lies, betrayal, and deceit—not exactly the building blocks for a "good" relationship, they do, however, make one heck of a good story. Olivia Ross was the "weird" girl growing up. People perceived her based solely on her outer appearance and socially awkward tendencies. Making new friends wasn’t her strong suit, so she settled for the ones that she had. After years of being the "weird" girl, she changed. She became quieter and started breaking rules. She thought there was nothing good or exciting about the world in which she was living…until she met Luke Daniels. Luke was everything she needed. With tattoos, a questionable past, a motorcycle, and an attitude, he made the perfect bad boy. He was unlike any other boy she had ever known. Olivia may not have known much about the world, or what she was getting into when Luke Daniels entered her life, but one thing was definite: it was sure to be something bad.
