**This is the English translation of CUTTING THE YEARS** Vanessa Alvarez is the spoiled brat and black sheep of her family. She loves to play around and tease her college instructor, Gian. Because of her dark plan, Vanessa ended up marrying Gian Saldivar—a gay fashion designer and teacher. But fate was harsh on her, because no matter what she did, her gay husband could never love her back. Vanessa wants, Vanessa gets. She forced her instructor Gian to become her man. But the more she pushed herself on him, the more he pulled away. But is he really the man she thinks he is? Will she ever win his heart, or will she finally stop chasing him? Will fate change and agree with her plans—or will she be the one to give up and walk away?
