Afterward, Sofia's death was covered up by their parents, and Forty suffered from a decline that caused him to become an addict, and later enter a twelve-step program. It's assumed that Love did this to protect her brother, but to make him rely on her when he needed to, as it's shown that relies on Love's support and attention.
Love married a deaf man named James Kennedy in July 2016, but the two later divorced for an unknown reasons. Kennedy later died in 2017 due to cancer, and Love became filled with grief, and when meeting Joe, sees that he has suffered lost as well.

Personality
| “ | You are just as broken as I am. You're just a much better liar. | „ |
| ~ Forty to Love. |
At first, Love shows herself to be intelligent, kind and good natured, as she loves cooking for people and making others happy. She has a close bond to her brother, being protective and caring for his needs, often taking him to places that needs to be. Once she meets Joe, she shows herself to be outgoing, taking him on adventures, but having an on and off relationship with him. She inside, she shows herself to be saddened by many things that have happened in her life, such as her losing her husband and the abuse she and her brother suffered from their parents. Despite having suffered from a great loss, she is shown to be an idyllic person, as Joe is unable to resist and fall in love with her.
However, most of Love's compassionate personality is a façade, as she is obsessive, cunning, manipulative, possessive and delusional individual. She is willing to go to great lengths to have Joe, wanting him to meet her friends immediately, and was annoyed that he cancelled some of their dates. Love is cunning and analytical, being able to figure what the perfect meal is for Joe, and manipulated many events for him to stay with her. She is also strategic, as she tells Joe of her plan to have Ellie fall for the murders, but knows she won't be arrested because of her family's connections. In addition, she is greatly possessive, wanting her brother to always need her, and wanting Joe close to her.
She is also unnervingly delusional, telling Joe that he was justified in killing Beck, stating that she wasn't special. In addition, she believes that what she does is for Joe's love, as she kills Delilah, Candace, and is willing help cover up Henderson's murder. This is further proven when she admits to stalking Joe, and admits that she loved him since then, causing him to lose his idyllic and perfect view of Love.
She and Joe are a potential yandere couple. Both are willing to protect each other, both are initially sweet and kind until someone comes between them, both were stalking each other, and they both killed for each other.
She is a mirror image of Joe himself, as both have experienced abuse from their childhoods, grieve over love ones, and are willing to protect someone they care for. Both are also greatly charming and manipulative, being able to put on facades that them kind and nurturing, and have a strange idea of romance. However, both are honorable in some ways, as both have protected their loved ones, as Joe killed Ron to protect Paco, as Love murdered Sofia to protect Forty.
