An aspiring author who specializes in romance novels, that is her identity— her passion.

Ironically she had been on the brink of giving up on romance in the real world, dating for her left her mind playing tricks, one heartbreak after another eventually led to her heart's demise,

However an ounce of hope lingered still due to her impeccable writing abilities, she expects everything to go exactly as her works, or like the fairytales her grandmother faithfully spewed to her as a child before bedtime,
