Andreia never expected her first taste of love to feel like destiny. Young, confident, and hungry for a life bigger than the streets around her, she meets carlos at a time when her world is still forming. He is calm, steady, and older-someone who seems to see every hidden part of her. What begins as a magnetic pull becomes a fire neither of them can ignore.
But desire has a price.
As Andreia grows, she starts to see what her younger eyes couldn't: Emmanuel's affection is possessive, his love conditional, his silence dangerous. When she finally chooses herself and tries to walk away, Emmanuel changes. The calm boy she once loved becomes someone darker-obsessive, controlling, and willing to do anything to keep her.
Caught between the life she wants and the boy she once believed in, Andreia discovers that love can be intoxicating... and deadly.
The Price of Desire is a raw, emotional urban love story about innocence lost, passion twisted, and the courage it takes to break free from a love that hurts more than it heals
