Twenty-three-year-old Alysia Lockridge had given up on love, after her boyfriend abandoned her when she was pregnant at the young age of seventeen.  Her life ever since then has consisted of work, school, and being a single mother with little time for fun and adventure.  When she and her friends plan a seven-day trip to visit one of their friends that moved to California, she had no idea her life would soon be flipped upside down and changed forever.  Ethan Brooks is the twenty-seven-year-old tall, tattooed, handsome and masculine man that changes everything.  Ethan and Alysia's good friend, Lanie Collins, work together.  The connection between Alysia and Ethan when they meet in passing is undeniable.  It's as if the universe is physically pulling the two together and they can't resist each other no matter how hard they try.  Can the broken duo mend each other's broken hearts?  Is their connection temporary or is it the kind that will withstand the test of time?  Come along on a summer vacation unlike any other as seen through the eyes of a lovestruck, broken, but hopeless romantic.

Brave Enough To Love Again  by CalliopeBlythe
80 parts Complete
I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"
