To love or have loved, that is enough. Ask nothing further.
There is no other pearl to be found in the dark folds of life.

Victor Hugo

Dear Reader,

If you opened this book, I'm pretty sure it's because we've already met in my other works.

If so, I'm grateful to have your continuous support.

If it's your first time reading my work, welcome!

So, what can you expect from The Real You?

Emotions. Many of them.

Drama.

Flawed characters.

Enemies-to-lovers.

Trauma.

Angst.

Love.

Lust

Steamy scenes.

College setting.

Secrets and mystery.

Crime.

Character development.

This work might be on a darker side, different from what you're used to, but hopefully good.

Love,
Alwyn
