Hello, thank you so much for giving my book a chance. I'm really grateful.
Please, do not steal the plot or book, I've worked and thought for hours and days, or even months on end, to come up with the plot.
• This is my first book ever, I have no writing experience whatsoever. Basically, this is me testing out my writing abilities and helping myself with my english.
• English isn't my native language so taking that on account, I would highly appreciate it if you commented on any grammar mistakes.
• I promise it gets better later as the story goes on so Iwould appreciate it if you didn't give up just yet.
• The characters aren't perfect by all means. They make mistakes, say and do stupid things (as a personIdo not always agree with what they say/do) but please bear with me as everything happens for a reason.
• The chapter's pov will not be by turns. They are gonna be random but the pov will be dual.
• I need to point out from the beginning that Lorenzo and Brianna will not be a couple in the story. They are just best friends or more like siblings. The book is about them and their lifes separately.
• And lastly, this is fiction. The places I write about are straight out of my mind and I try to make them seem real by adding things from the internet. For example, Brianna's and Lorenzo's journey is based of Google maps but that doesn't mean that the places where they are, have the things that are written.
Feel free to give me your opinion about what you like or not like in the book.

These are the characters that the story follows, you'll get both of their povs and eventually you'll get to see their relationships, way of thinking and development all while reading.
