Ingrid Rodríguez A 20-year-old girl who knows almost to nothing of the outside world. Her strict parents made her see what they wanted her to see. They wanted her away from the outside world so much that they put her in online school throughout her entire life. She was too timid and shy to talk back to anyone, which led to years of people walking over her. Her older sister is one of the main ones. Her aging grandmother is the only person who understands what she's going through and desperately wants to take her away from it all. Tristian Locke A 25-year-old tattoo artist who believes his heart is broken beyond repair. His mother, who has experienced painful trauma is now in a state of shock. His father, who is a lawyer, wants his son to get out of the phase he is in so he can have a "real" profession... so it seems. Tristian, in his mind, has disowned his father for the many things he's done behind his mother's back as well as his constant attempts to lure him back into the old ways of their family history involving the Irish Mob. On the outside, Tristian is calm and subtle, but on the inside, he has pent-up anger that he only releases accidentally or while training in the gym. His mother, alone, is the very reason he hasn't completely broken yet and is the source of all his inspiration. Tristian no longer believes in love. His father being the worst example of what love should be, is painted into his mind. He stays away from relationships and women as he wants nothing to do with them until she walked into his shop. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ " He tattooed his name on my heart " WARNING: THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT AND EXPLICIT LANGUAGE.

If I had to use one word to describe her it would be lonely. Even though there were many people surrounding here, she was incredibly lonely. Her parents died in an attack and her brothers are barely at home after they had taken over the family buisness, the guards often just ignored her attempts to start a coversation and weren't interested in being friends with a 17 years old teenage girl. The constant fear of getting kidnapped, not being able to go out by herself and not having friends didn't help and she would have a right to pity herself. But she didn't. She is a cheerful young innocent beauty, who smiles at anyone and anything, never cusses and couldn't hurt a fly. She tries to stay positive all the time and couldn't bring it up to hate someone. She doesn't even hold a grudge against her bodyguard Xander, who makes her life worse than it is already and bullys her whenever he has the time. ###CONTAINS SWEARING###
