Emily Thompson is an aspiring writer who seems to know every word like the back of her hand, except the word love. Those four letters are the most terrifying thing in her world and for her, it'd be a lot easier to live a life without it. She's just trying to survive life without the little bumps in the road that it always seems to cause. When it comes to love, Emily knows just about nothing.
