Love is a foreign word to 17 year old Aubriella Winters. "Girls will be your friends, guys will be your enemy. You won't say the 4 letter word, you won't feel it either. Such a fake emotion crafted by the currupted minds of uneducated teenagers. Nobody has ever felt such a thing and nobody ever will. That made up stuff is only in the minds of idiots" that's all Aubriella hears her mom say before she starts to think about love. She's never heard her parents say they love each other, and her parents haven't ever said it to her. She believes them up until she meets Eli Thomas, an attractive, strong, and caring 18 year old. Aubriella might just get the chance to say the forbidden word and mean it; that is if she does find love with Eli.
