"Uh, Els," he frowned, looking at the man beside me. "Who exactly is this gentleman?"
I stared at Roman blankly and said," This is my boyfriend. Duh."
Roman's eyes widened fractionally, before he cleared his throat and questioned further. "Er. What is his name?"
Before my black-headed 'boyfriend' could respond, I said, "I actually don't know."

Gisella "Ella" Armatello has gone through a lot. She's lost her family to unresolved issues, and her brother to the evil clutches of death.
To protect herself, she's created so many walls around her, that coming out of it seems tougher than beating the smartest man at chess. And yet, she needs to.
With some help from the friends her brother left behind, Ella sets off on an incredible journey. Literally.
If you like road trips, bucket lists, a klatch of beautiful people, depressingly lame anecdotes and other such nonsensical tales, this is the book for you.
But, if you can't handle a dose of reality, or of the bitter patches loss leaves behind, this is most definitely NOT your type of book.
Warning: Roman Clark and Preston Greyson are fictional characters. You may fall into a state of denial, yearning for their presence.
