170. The number she hates, the number she loves. It showed her in-superiority, it showed her to open her heart. 18 years old, four and a half languages (unless you include the braille and sign language), and unknown to love. Seemingly perfect, she cannot help but feel inadequate next to her older sister who always got just one number above her, so she emigrated from her disappointed family and made a new life for herself thousands of miles away.
A drunken father, a mother buried six feet under. A heart shattered from the beginning, not open to love. He barely obtained a diploma, but found himself drawn to the eastern city of Boston, a thousand miles away from the house that was never home. His intelligence is undermined by his tattoos, his motorcycle, and his leather jacket that is never more than ten feet away.
Two hearts oblivious to love, two hearts from completely different backgrounds. The differences should repel anyone, but somehow they meet despite the odds and fill in the cracks of one another's heart.
