Full version of Second Edition available on Amazon and via Kindle Unlimited. Chris Sinclair fades under a dark cloud after losing his mother to cancer. On the cusp of adulthood, he doesn't know where he should go or how to get there. But watching life pass him by was never the plan, and when he is forced to attend a concert in an attempt to coax him out of his shell, he discovers that life might have more to offer. Dante Heron holds the audience between his delicate bow and the tips of his fingers. He plays the violin as if every heart is his to command, but the discipline needed to perfect his skills has left him with nothing to spare. He's a fire that burns too bright or not at all-unpredictable and demanding. When Chris is unexpectedly offered a job to travel around Europe as Dante's assistant, or 'friend', he surprises himself by accepting. Their journey barely starts before Chris realizes he's in over his head. Every step along the way is fraught with tension, and the farther they go, the closer they veer to a breaking point. Invisible strings are at play, stitched into Dante's life by those who should have taught him how to love. Perhaps Chris is right to be afraid, but sometimes, what you fear the most is what you can't afford to lose.

To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides. Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command. To love deeply in one direction makes us more loving in all others. Perhaps the feelings that we experience when we are in love represent a normal state. Being in love shows a person who he should be. To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead. Love is not enough. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone - but not the complete structure. It is much too pliable, too yielding. Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what it loves. The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed. Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love. Maraming words ang maaring makapag define ng love. More than one... two... three... or more. Love conquers in many ways. Love to God... Love to Family... Friends... Others... but when the word LOVE comes, iisa lang ang unang naiisip ng mga tao.... Pagmamahal sa isang tao. Love for either opposite sex or same sex. Yung tipong kayong dalawa ay nagmamahalan.... sa isa't-isa. Pero bakit nga ba dumarami ang nagingialam sa inyong buhay... bakit nga ba sa lahat ng mga bagay, ang dalawa ay nadadagdagan ng iba pa? Maraming nangingialam sa pag-iibigan ninyo na hindi naman dapat. Diba dapat dalawa lang kayo sa relasyon... hindi tatlo.. apat.. lima. LESS THAN THREE nga ika nila. Ako si Alex, at samahan mo akong lakbayin ang sarili kong kwento.
