Emil isn't your usual adoring leading man. He's the (monster) anti-hero. Aishe isn't your classic protagonist. She's the (temptress) anti-heroine. This isn't your typical romance. It's a horror (anti-) love story. This isn't the traditional novel where the sweet, innocent girl finds her prince charming and they live happily-ever-after. If that's what you're looking for, look somewhere else. Because in this story, no one gets out unscathed. Aishe is running. Running from the burn of a love she knows will consume her. Running from a soul mate she's never even met. If only she hadn't been hired as a merch girl for the hottest indie band on earth. If only she'd never laid eyes on its front man, Emil-intense, sexy, and so unlike the men of her culture. If only she hadn't fallen onto his lips, then into his bed. If only her flame hadn't exploded into a full-on forest fire. If only Emil's heart didn't belong to someone else. *** Emil is running. Running from a broken heart. Running from who he was with her. If only Zoe hadn't left. If only Aishe hadn't been right there. If only she hadn't been so damn gorgeous-insistent-different. If only he could control himself around her. If. Only.
