23 parts Complete MatureAdrian x Belvina book.
Adrian Parker has always been the rock-steady, reliable, the friend who would drop everything to help others, even when his own world was crumbling. Beneath the smiles and jokes, however, lies a man haunted by the weight of past betrayals. The impostors, the cheaters, the liars-Adrian has seen it all, and each heartbreak has left a scar deep enough to make him believe that love was nothing more than a fleeting illusion. Now, he wears a mask, and behind it, he's built walls so thick no one can penetrate. No room for love. No space for pain. Or so he thought.
Then came Belvina Gallardo.
Belvina has lived by one rule: trust no one. After being burned by betrayal, she swore off letting anyone get close enough to hurt her again. Her heart? Locked up tight, guarded by walls only her closest friends and family have managed to breach. But Adrian Parker is different. He's persistent. Relentless. And, somehow, she feels something stirring inside her-a dangerous temptation to let him in.
Both Adrian and Belvina have been broken, their trust shattered by the ones they loved. In a world where casual hookups and burying yourself in work is easier than risking another heartache, neither of them expects anything to change. They've both sworn off love for good.
But sometimes, the heart doesn't listen to reason. And the one person you swear you'll never let in may just be the one who can heal you.
When trust is shattered, can two broken souls learn to love again? Or will they simply break each other in the process?
