Touch Me. Not. 
- The Graphic Novel (Part 1)

Love is not easy. It is complicated, painful, and everything in between

with 4-colour illustrations by Gabriella Bujdosó

When Sage arrives in Nevada, she has nothing – no money, no apartment, no friends. Nothing but the fierce determination to get a fresh start and forget about everything that happened back at home. Sage endured years of sexual abuse by her stepfather, while her mother – blinded by her love for the man – let it just happen. During these years, Sage developed a pathological fear of men that still overwhelms her at times.

It happens again when Sage starts her new job in a library where she meets Luca. With his piercing gray eyes and his tattoos, he stands for everything Sage is afraid of. But Luca is not what he seems to be at first glance. As time goes by, Sage realizes that Luca has nothing in common with her stepfather, despite his appearance, and that she can trust him. Nevertheless, she is finding it hard to let go of the past and when a phone call from home stirs it all up, she makes a difficult decision – and leaves Luca.
