Imagine this. You've just been on a fifteen hour flight; you're exhausted, grumpy, pissed off with the world and certainly not in the mood to deal with anybody, even your best friend. You arrive at your new apartment that your friend's lent you and are ready to fall into a nice, comfortable bed... except there's a 6'2 ft giant laying across it and you've woken him, so he's now glaring at you with so much hatred it's insane! He may be devilish handsome but he's also a drunk and moody pain in the ass, whom I did not fly all the way across the world to be roommates with the fils de pute (son of a bitch). He thinks I'm a stuck up French girl with a stick up my ass, I think he's a cocky asshole who needs to learn a lesson or two. So without further ado, let the roommate wars... begin. cover design by; me

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 can't help but be drawn to Lucy and her elusive ways--even when she seems to vanish from his life non-stop, each time leaving him with a bigger hole in his heart. 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.
