As we start, Maia finds herself having to be the bearer of bad news on behalf of her best friend, Nessa, who's ex boyfriend is threatening to sue due to unpaid bills during their relationship. Knowing Nessa is going to chicken out, she feels it's her duty to stand up for her friend. For as in the words of Elle Woods: "Ladies it's a fact, that when you're attacked, you've got to respond." Or something like that. This hunt for a stranger Maia has never met embarks her on a path of learning she never thought she'd need. As her feet push one by one on the peddles of her 1992 Trek bike, she realizes that she has been on the road for 24 hours and hasn't moved, nor has she realized the passing of time. Trying to figure out what happened, or where she is, she meets Harlyn, and together the two embark on a new journey to find the ex. Since turning 23, Aria has felt that adulthood has passed her by, but here she learns that it has just been waiting for her, if she is willing to accept it. Along the way, she meets many interesting people, sees much oppression, and witnesses some historic events that all put her life into a whole new perspective.

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"
