Beté Noire Series #2: Arcane

Because no one was there to take care of her as she grew old, Sofiara Claire became independent at a young age. She was used to doing everything herself, from financing her own studies to paying her rents. The abandonment she experienced made her develop a twisted view of love, from loathing the idea of it to becoming scared of it. She hates men like Solaris East Xavier, but after committing a mistake, she found herself living with the guy who speaks of love as if everything around him is made up of it.
