Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all.

In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country.

Love should be simple, should be sincere and from the heart. But other souls, darker souls use it to obtain and acquire what they cannot get by other means. By this deception love is ruined, the relationship will never be the same, but for one of them the gain may well have been worth it.
