Love: A Glitch in the System.
Love, a flaw, a weakness, a vulnerability.
Love is blind, it clouds your judgment and shatters your plans. And Emmy Lee Ann Smith had vehemently refused this configuration of her heart.
She'd witnessed the devastating effects of toxic love within her own family, seen her mother dehumanized by love for an abusive husband.
Love, a system error, and her own system had been upgraded for success. She'd achieved all her academic and professional goals precisely because her focus remained untainted by ephemeral feelings.
Besides, love in England was doomed to fail when her ultimate plan was to move to America, to the luxury villa of her future billionaire husband, and develop a globally expanding business in banking and finance.
With plans meticulously laid, Emmy Lee Ann Smith juggles between feelings and dreams.
But then, she devastatingly collides with HIM. Just as emotionally shattered as she, just as much a sentimental wreck.
They navigate together, then separately, through events, secrets, and dramas.
Love hurts physically... and Emmy Lee Ann Smith isn't ready to take the bullet.
Her departure to America, in search of herself, brings her face to face with the cruel truth. She's alone, just as she had been for all of her 21 years.
Will HE manage to turn her back? And if so, at what cost? Will love cross the ocean and conquer reason? Is love truly the cure?
