PREPARE TO LOVE.
A historical journey where love takes us into the lives of two lost people.
Gabriella; a poor, young village girl who grew up in cruel words and hatred. Through the sadness, joy, and anger she is brought up into something spectacular out of nothing and it all started with learning to love herself.
Prince Manuel of Spain was not capable of loving anyone but himself. His selfishness and pride taught him that as he grew in it everyday; but that was until he met someone who taught him how to lead with love and respect the meaning of love that changed his life forever.
"So these three things continue forever: faith, hope and love. And the greatest of these is love."

Heart
Her name was Gabriella Quintanilla. She was a senior in high school during this time. She had the looks, all the boys, the popularity, the clothes, and even the grades. And in no way was she ignorant of any of these things--quite the opposite. She knew that she was above average in most categories of life, and had no problem reminding people repeatedly of that fact. I'm not going to lie---I didn't like her. Not at all. To be completely honest, I threatened to kill her with my bare hands. And the scary thing is, I meant it. I wanted her to die. I imagined dark fantasies of the light fading from her eyes right before my own, her pleading for me to spare her life. And in my fantasies, I wouldn't listen and I didn't care. She had tortured me for five years and I was utterly and simply sick of it all. Sick of her. My animosity towards Gabriella was no secret among my peers. Not many people liked her, so it's not like I stood alone on the concept. However I was the only one who voiced a threat. THE threat. The threat that got me on a suspect list in some cop's notepad. They want to know if I killed her. If they knew the whole story, would they blame me if I did? ©Copyright Timara M. Lewis 2013Complete
