Lorelei Jones was content with the life given to her after running away from the only home she had ever known. A home filled with horrific circumstances.
She has a roof over her head; even though it's a rolling death trap, food to eat; when a paying stranger is willing to share, a friend who would do anything for her and her dreams to keep her happy.
She doesn't complain, she doesn't whine, she is simply thankful for the fact that she is alive. A life that almost ended a year and a half ago.
But when a handsome stranger invades the world she has grown contented with she starts to notice just how different she is and suddenly the world as she knows it isn't enough.

★Dialogue from "Finding Lorelei Jones"★
Adam - "You know, we are a lot alike. Like you, sometimes I think "man it's hard being me" but then unlike you, me remembers how freakin awesome it is to actually be me and the pity party quickly comes to an end."
Lei - "Unlike you, I don't exactly have a plethora of Porsche's, people and money at my finger tips to fuel an ego trip."
Adam - "Unlike me, you don't need any of it. You are the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my entire life and that my dear is worth millions. I should know, I have seen a lot of beautiful things thanks to the people and money you hate so much. And 'you' should know, I plan on spending every bit of that and more making you mine."
