Publisher's Synopsis
"You wish for roses and hearts, but he only has thorns and darkness". Vanessa is a college student who loves books and rain. Scarred by her parents' difficult divorce, she has found comfort in Travis, the boyfriend all mothers - including her own - would want for their daughters. At his side, she hopes to build a happiness she has been missing for too long. But, after two years, it seems their relationship has cooled and Vanessa's heart doesn't beat like it used to. At least not until the first day of the second year. In class, the young girl crosses paths with a new classmate for the first time: he has a body covered in tattoos and two green eyes that are all too easy to get lost in. Thomas is an explosive mixture of fascination and arrogance, victim and executioner with a tormented past. He and Vanessa, so different and yet so alike, fit together like the pieces of a puzzle and a tempestuous relationship is born between them, made up of moments of passion and tenderness, furious arguments and reconciliations. But Vanessa wants more, she dreams of a real love, romantic and absolute, the kind of love she reads about in her favorite novels. Thomas, on the other hand, a perpetual tangle of thorns keeps tormenting him. However, if it is difficult for them to understand each other, it is impossible to separate."
