Christian had never met anyone quite like Harmony before, and he didn’t entirely know what to do with her. Most people feared him, but this little slip of a woman bulldozed right over him. That didn’t take away his determination to have her. Harmony went through life with optimism, and with such a loving, caring heart that Christian was shocked she hadn’t been ground into the dirt a long time ago. Instead, she went about her life just the way she wanted to, no matter how much Christian tried to protect her. When she felt her world disappearing around her, she decided she’d rather be poor and alone instead of living in the gilded cage Christian had put her into. No matter how hard he fought, he knew he’d have to change his way of thinking if he wanted her to love him, and there was nothing he wouldn’t do for her because he couldn’t live without her.
