"When I tell you that he hates me, you'll probably assume it's because he's a jerk...but you'd be wrong. He's not a jerk. I am." --- Several years ago tragedy struck Emma's home, leaving her broken... like a cup with cracks spiraling and slithering around the edges. Slowly, bitterness crept in like tar, hardening between each fracture to resemble a deceitful wholeness. She became a monster, and targeted her venom on the sweetest person she could find: Trinity Nixon. Too bad the boy Emma longed for was Trinity's brother. Now, as Emma fights to win the heart of the boy who despises her, she's forced to hide her demons. She paints her fragile cup in pinks, yellows, and oranges - all the colors of the sun. She paints on a smile, and an unusual sense of humor, so that the world will view her as bright and cheerful, when in reality she's breaking. But she's completely unprepared for the acidic truth that melts away the tar, demolishing her shell, and awakening the Emma White buried deep inside. --- Book 1 in The Dismantled Pride series *Story was previously titled "Faking It"

When they first meet at the Cd store, there comes a spark that their life is a lot more than just pain of their pasts, like how music is so much more than just tune and lyrics. 'Sometimes you don't have to hear the lifeless wind whistling in your ears but listen to your heart pumping in your chest.

Have you ever wondered who you were? I have. I wish I could tell you my name, but I don't have one. Never have, and probably will always be nameless. I live in a society called Downstairs, where everything is attempted perfection - everyone tries to perfect every blemish, every flaw that they see in themselves that other people see in their mirrors. Me? I am an orphan, an outcast, a street devil that has nothing to do with the world. Every time I look into my mirror I see a monster with an inked heart, a devil with a dirty body. I don't belong. But then I meet Freyor. He sees me differently, a way I have never seen before. We have many things in common - we are both orphans and outcasts. He is a friend, something I have never had before. He is the person who believes lives the same standards as I do and believes the same legends and myths as I do. We both believe in The Man Upstairs, the Omnipotent and All Powerful One who created Downstairs with His perfect hands. We both have what it takes to be different from everyone else. And then Freyor offers something that would change my life forever ...
