Paisley Barrett is a 23 year old hopeless romantic and a bookworm. She romanticizes everything in her mind, and hopes that when she meets her forever person, they will have the perfect little meet cute, just like all the romance books she loves to read. 

Lincoln Abbott does not feel the same way about relationships. He thinks of everyone as flings. Partly because he thinks long-term commitment is too much work and a waste of time, and partly because he hasn't found anyone who is willing to deal with his diabetes. 

Diabetes runs in Paisley Barrett's family. She knows exactly how important it is to take care of your blood sugar. So when she meets Lincoln Abbott-a carefree twenty five year old who doesn't take care of his diabetes-she makes it her goal to get him to let her in so she can take care of him. As they start talking, they realize that there is more between them, and they want more than just friendship.

Living with Rebecca's childhood friend, a new world filled with love, excitement, and friendship opens up for both of them. This story is for everybody who also dreams of a fairy tale and won't care if the "knights" were a little dirty. "Grab a bunch of broken misfits, chuck them in a tribe, add some glitter and loads of weird-ass garbage, voila, you've got yourself a fairy tale... kinda... just... you know... minus the fairies..." Paisley Davenport This story is my happy place; I do not plan on ever finishing it. It will go on and on like a soapie. I might break it up into volumes later. This book is ideal for forgetting the world and becoming best friends with the characters. Please Note:- I'm currently rewriting this story to edit and enhance parts. I'm also breaking up long chapters. Though the reading flow will not be broken, the chapter numbers will become out of sync at the border between old and new. ♫ Genre: Slice of Life/Romance/Humour This is a slow-burn journey through love and life, filled with an array of beloved characters, their sad moments, happy moments and a multitude of bat-sh#t crazy moments. P.S.: This is not a fairy tale... ♫ This is a work of fiction. Any names or characters, businesses or places, events or incidents are fictitious. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
