Two: hide his bipolar disorder from his peers. And three: make it into the NHL with no scandals. Piece of cake. What he doesn't expect is to find Lucy, a homeless girl, hiding from the winter frost in his dad's shed. Elliot's busy, complicated life doesn't permit room for error, and falling in love with a girl from a totally different world sounds like the opposite of a good idea.

But Elliot is determined to break down Lucy's barriers. And when he does, he discovers that her life is more complicated--and dangerous--than he could have imagined. With drafting season approaching, and Elliot's fragile mental health deteriorating, he's forced to face a difficult question: Is first love supposed to hurt so much? *** PLEASE DO NOT ADD THIS STORY TO GOODREADS.

"We were only two shattered souls who desired to be connected as one, but the secrets that hid within the shadows of our cryptic past yearned to be discovered." "Life as we know it slips from our fragile hands when we least expect it to happen. It leaves you with many unanswered questions and desired feelings. You never fully know where you'll end up in life and with who; it just happens, you know? You'll meet people who can make you love life -- Or instantly regret it." Aitana and Guilherme never imagined the first time they'd encounter each other would be under such critical conditions. These two will learn life isn't just a walk in the park -- love and desire have completely different meanings -- and life itself is only a mere game in the battle of survival. - You can also find this story on the game application, Episode. I currently have seven episode published. - Happy reading!
