“Lalaki lang ako, mahina sa tukso.” This kind of reasoning did not work well with Ashene Lei Castro. Bukod sa galit siya, ito rin ang unang heart break niya sa kanyang first boyfriend na si John Kenneth Guzman. Gusto niya rin naman subukan na patawarin ito, ngunit ni isang “sorry,” walang lumabas mula sa labi ng binata. Mahal niya ito, ngunit hindi niya hahayaan na masaktan siya muli. Simula noon, pinangako niya sa sarili na wala nang makapananakit pa sa kanya. And her way of doing so is kind of peculiar – wearing thick glasses. Ayaw niyang may lumapit pa na lalaki sa kanya at subukang suyuin siya, kung sa huli ay magloloko lang ulit. But there is more behind the glasses. Maiintindihan kaya iyon ng lalaking gusto muling subukan na maging parte ng buhay niya? O tuluyan na siya nitong bibitawan?

Wendell is a quiet, soft–spoken bartender who tends an isolated bar in a wasteland where time slips, memories decay, and reality bends at the edges. He does not know how long he has been here. He barely remembers who he is. Each day, more of his mind withers, leaving behind only fragments and rituals, like polishing glasses that reflect things no mirror should ever show. He only understood one thing. If he serves someone a second drink, he forgets them completely. Wendell believes he is trapped within the bar. He believes he is human. He believes the strange distortions around him are simply the nature of this broken world. But when a woman he almost recognizes stumbles inside, and flees in terror, followed by a quiet young man with a briefcase that should not exist, cracks begin to form in Wendell’s fading identity. The man treats him with an unsettling familiarity. He waits. He watches. And when Wendell finally opens the abandoned briefcase, a vortex erupts and drags him inside. Only then is the truth revealed. Wendell is not a forgotten bartender at all. He is a creature bound to the bar for reasons he can no longer recall. A monster whose memories have been stripped away and sealed inside a device meant to contain him.

Six months pregnant. I’d just secured a vital resource for the pack. I came home to find my mate, Kaelen, scent-marking his adopted sister, Lyra. He didn’t apologize. He screamed at me for interrupting. He made me apologize to her. In front of everyone. Forced me to swallow ten doses of wolfsbane. But that wasn’t the worst part. They said Lyra was “cursed,” and the only cure was a sacrifice: the heart of my unborn pup. They tied me to an altar. I watched, helpless, as they ripped the life from my child. Then, Lyra took a silver blade to my face. Kaelen looked at the scars, called me a rogue… and threw me off the cliff with his own hands. As I fell, the last thing I heard was his voice, cold as ice. “Toss it in the furnace. No evidence.” But I opened my eyes again. My Moon Goddess bloodline had awakened. Now, I get my revenge.

First I have to say please by no means get confused by the title of this book. The title relates in no way to the book or maybe it does. Who knows, depends on your perspective i guess. To me the title and the books goes hand with hand. Or rather the title gave birth to the book. Without the title am not sure there would have been a book. To me it tells the reader why and how the book came to be. NOTE: Each poem comes with a story from the author's past, relating it the poem and ending it or perhaps try to see things from his view that the girl who forgot her glasses is everything.
