Janel survived abuse and neglect as a child at the hands of her adoptive parents. When they died, she lived in the woods, just trying to survive day to day. When she was found, she was stuck in the government system and forgotten in a group home, because no one thought she was normal. She was mostly mute, and she refused to touch anyone or be touched by anyone, because the only touch she'd ever known, was painful. One day Ian Sheer, a singer/songwriter notices her and her strange ways of trying to connect with humans. He befriends her and quickly finds himself falling for her. But how can they have a relationship if she can't even hold his hand? Hug him? Be hugged by him? Kiss? Be intimate in any fashion? She desperately wants to overcome her fear of human touch, and be "normal" and love Ian for as long as he will stay with her. Everyone leaves her eventually, after all... ***THERE IS LOTS OF GRAPHIC SEX IN THIS STORY, I WARNED YOU. THERE IS SOME ROUGH SEX. EVEN A LITTLE BIT OF RAPE FANTASY. I DOUBLE WARNED YOU! I USE GRAPHIC WORDS, FOR GRAPHIC SEX. SO IF YOU DON'T LIKE THAT SORT OF THING.....YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO! (READ IT BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU'RE CURIOUS!! MUAHAHAHAHA!) THERE IS ALSO PLENTY OF LOVE. SO READ IT, PEOPLES! Please?? :)

Life is never as it cracks up to be. As a small child all you want to do is grow up and make plans for the future but the reality is that there are no plans. Plans don't work. Something might interfere. Or someone.
