What is The Tearsmith’s plot?
Sometimes our greatest fear is accepting that someone might sincerely love us for who we are. Nica and Rigel were adopted together after a difficult childhood in an orphanage, which was not their dream scenario – they were unable to get along with each other. Over time, however, they realize that they are drawn to each other by unexpected and irresistible feelings.
