When their paths cross after six years of longing, they are faced with a choice.Forget the past and let go of the heartache…giving in to the temptation that was always there.Or continue to torture themselves by avoiding what was always meant to be. Tattooed Hearts of endless love… Will it be enough or will the memories of their past create an unbreakable wedge between them. Views: 18
