I placed the phone on the receiver before she could finish her thought. I felt myself breaking down, and I knew I had to get out of my apartment as soon as possible. I grabbed my keys and my leather coat from the bedroom, and decided to go for a ride. I observed the patterns of my breath in the moonlight as I fumbled with my keys in the car door. I fought to no avail to get the images of Mia and Kevin out of my mind. I turned to look at my passenger seat, and Mia was sitting there smiling at me. I looked in my rearview mirror, and the two of them were in my backseat. I shut my eyes tight and started the engine. A gust of cold air blew from the A/C panel as I struggled to adjust the heat on this cold November night. I cursed the chilly temperature because I knew it would take my car a while to heat up. My hands were shaking and my head throbbed as I pulled out of the carport. Everything seemed to move in a slow, blurred motion as I tried to get a grip on things. I simply couldn’t process what I had just heard. I didn’t want to.

About the Book
Do you remember your first love, the song that was playing when you experienced your first kiss, where you were for your first time, or how long it took to get past your first heartbreak? These events mold us, shape us, and forever alter us.
When Alexander Gray meets Mia Price, the southern belle of his dreams, he must decide which fate would wound him more: being spurned or being burned? He screws up his courage long enough to ask her out, and they realize that perhaps they are meant to build a life together after all. That path will not be a smooth one for either, but now, as a couple, they must face their choices together.
Along the way, they must survive run-ins with ex-girlfriends, ex-boyfriends, and new acquaintances—not to mention the specter of unresolved issues from the past. Alex and Mia’s relationship must survive the dangers of young love, or they may find that growing up can lead to growing apart.
Theirs is a journey laced with hope, laughter, and the ever-shifting challenges of an emerging relationship, but most of all, it is rich with love.
