People have seen so many things. They have traveled across the world, they have fought and won, they have fought and lost. They have loved and been loved. They have lived and will live. They have done so many things to see it all but Aubrey Parish has seen nothing. Not until she sees Lorenzo Ortiz
"Don't you believe in love Aubrey?" Someone once asked her. Her answer was clear and simple. "I do, I believe in love David. Just like I believe in magic, in black holes or in another universe. I believe in love the same way I believe in hundreds of millions of dollars, in becoming a psychiatrist or in world peace but it doesn't mean I'm ever going to get it."
In simple words, this story is about love. It confesses the sins of the love we lust for. It shows the greed, buried into the back of somebody's heart, does more damage than we let on. She's a normal girl, he's a normal guy but together, it's everything but normal. He is addicted to her, she can't get enough of him. He will break her, she will destroy him. He wants her, she needs him. They're like moths drawn to flames.

"How can you stand there, pretending you dont know me, pretending there's somewhere you'd rather be? I love you. The tears on your cheeks break my heart because they mean that you don't know how much I fucking love you. When I look in your eyes, I don't see the boring, alone girl you see; I see a woman who could bring the world to its knees or that could lift it so fucking high, the entire thing would fly. You are strong, you are kind, you are intelligent, you are trusting, you are outstanding and you are breathtakingly gorgeous. The list goes on Aubrey. I could tell you every. single. thing. I love about you, I wouldn't be done before I died and it would take a shit-load of my time but if that's what it takes to show you how important you are to me, then that's what I'll do."

"What?" He asked, pulling me from my daydream again. I chuckled, biting my lip again.
"Are you thinking about me naked?" He asked jokingly. I blushed heavily, tucking my hair behind my ear.
"No, of course not." I babbled nervously. "Well not of course not, but." He cut me off, laughing softly.
"It's fine babe, relax." He grinned, rubbing my cheek softly. "You can picture me naked anytime you want. Well as long as you get to be naked with me." He purred. I blushed again, tucking my legs into my arms.
