An amazing experience

It is rare to find true love, and here again, we hear the story of a man (this time), who found true love, but didn't recognise it until it was too late. What an amazing girl, Tess is. You fall in love with her from the moment she is introduced. Frustrating at times, but a true hero in every sense. A fantastic memorable read.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
