Tara Stammel is a quiet, introverted, Christian girl, who loves romantic novels, tv shows and writing but has never actually been in love. She has always been infatuated with her next door neighbor, Peter Menace, but would never willingly admit that she likes him. An unexpected encounter reveals he could somewhat fell the same. Peter is also a man of his own religious beliefs, somewhat lukewarm. Which is ironic considering the life he lives. Though Tara knows of his reputation, there is one code that he lives by that she learns about and proves to ultimately be surprising. Peter knows more than he's letting on about Tara, a secret that could change the course of her entire life. His family empire was the only thing deterring things from goin his way. Having to follow in his father's footsteps and take control of his drug empire as he puts down his crown gets in his way to do what he truly desires and leaves little to no room for love. Would Tara and Peter ever overcome this, only time would tell?
