She falls hard for him, her reality of love far greater than her fantasies, but when a familiar pain resurfaces in paradise, and she feels like she may be walking down memory lane, will she have it in her to fight? Or is the fear of going through anything that resembles her childhood greater than her dream to finally find love?
Love meets reality in this epic novel.

"Excuse me, you seem lost in thought. Did you want to buy something or do I need to direct you home again?"
"What?"
She laughs, "It was a joke, Jeez. The last time you were in here you seemed like you had a sense of humor. Where'd that go?"
"I have this neighbor who basically sucks the life and humor out of people. Unfortunately, I am a recent victim."
"I know how that feels, trust me. I have one in my life too."
"Anyway, what can I do for you Mr. ..."
"Please call me Adrian."
"Okay Adrian, what can I do for you today?"
"Actually, I was passing by, and I thought I should say thank you for the other day."
"That's nice, but you didn't have to. I didn't really do anything a human being wouldn't."
"Hey, don't sell yourself short. You did a lot for me. If you didn't save my ass, I may have been a missing person by now, or worse that guy on the news they keep saying is nowhere to be found."
"How can I argue when you mentioned the guy on the news. The news never lies, and I'm sure you don't either. You're right, I should be thanked for saving a life."
"Not just A life, but many lives. Think of my poor mother and my friends and family. How would they live without me, huh?"
"You're right, I saved a generation that day."
We're both laughing very hard and it feels just right. Talking to her was easy.
