17 year old Ariabella Cielo has lived most of her life believing the one person she trust the most every word. But what if with every story she's been told there were half lies and half truths ?
What if she's just being used to fulfill an age old promise of family?
What if those who were her brightest light became her darkest fear?
What if the one person who can give closure is staying at bay?
What if she was just another innocent casualty of decisions made by her predecessors?
What if all the lies were the truths and the truths the lies ?
