" It wasn't supposed to have been like this , my life wasn't supposed to have been like this nor was I was supposed to end like this  . Yet  I did and as I gasped at the pain coursing through me 
I realized I hadn't belonged to myself neither had my life  been mine to control  from the day he entered it "

 Perks of being  the heir of a leading businessman could appeal less to Faith Grace ,  yet what does is the inexpiable pull her sixteen-year-old self-feels for twenty-four-years old Caleb Duke , Steel king Mr. Dukes only heir . 
Pine , she does for years on end for the man she had only but exchanged mere pleasantries with . Unfathomable her feelings were even to herself ,yet it did little to change how she felt for him , without any hopes of ever being his woman . How was she to hope for it when all she saw when she looked into the mirror was a face covered with pus-filled cystic acne , which if nothing else, had taken its toll on her self-confidence . Surely Caleb Duke would never be attracted to her even if their evident age difference was to be kept apart . 

Unexpectedly though he was and a marriage , an alliance between the two companies never deemed of does take place.

What remains to be seen though , is if the devotion and love Faith has felt towards Caleb be returned in the intensity akin to hers or will loving him be the most exquisite form of self-destruction .
