Orianna (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781512321425)

High School Senior Benjamin Forestor feels like he's always been alone and fears that he always will be. He believes this fear came from his mother's abandonment when he was a child. If his own mother could leave him and his father and brother to run off with her lover, what's to keep everyone he ever meets from leaving him? When Ben finally gets his driver's license, and a set of wheels to go with it, he goes on a quest to locate his mother and confront her about how her adultery and abandonment damaged him and his family. Fear of being abandoned has caused Ben to sabotage every relationship or friendship in his life. As soon as anyone gets to close, Ben pushes them away. If he doesn't exercise the demons of his past by finding and coming to understand his mother, he fears everyone he ever has a relationship with will suffer the same fate. Then the unexpected happens, and Ben's whole world if slowly infected by a very special girl named Orianna. He's never met anyone like her before - he knows she's the one he wants to spend the rest of his life, and he's sure she feels the same. But Ben knows that if he does not confront his mother and his own darkness, their relationship will never last. While he's focused on his past and own demons, Ben misses both Orianna's insecurities and the growing threat posed by one of his friends. At one time, Ben had hoped this friend would become his girlfriend. She hadn't wanted him then, but she does now that Orianna has him. Jealous of his newfound relationship, she starts a mad crusade to take down Orianna and everyone associated with her. She's not content simply to break them up; if she has their way, she'll break them into pieces. Threatened by the demons both mental and physical, Ben and Orianna struggle to save themselves and their love. Will Ben's fear wither his growing love for Orianna? Can he learn to forgive his mother and let go, to acceot that everyone is imperfect and learn to love others and himself fully? Or will the darkness in Ben's and Orianna's minds and the actions of one troubled girl destroy everything Ben holds dear? Join Benjamin Forestor on his powerful quest and discover with him that true love awaits those who learn to grow and forgive.
