Affected by her parents’ highly publicized divorce, Isabel
grows up isolated and alone, with a resolve to never fall in love and repeat
their mistakes.
When Jesse Cain enters her life, she falls hopelessly in
love with him, and every sadness she’s ever felt is washed away by his
intensity and passion. But people change as they grow up. Things can never stay
the same forever.
Jesse and Isabel fight to stay together, determined to hold
on to what they once had. Isabel wonders if a second love can ever be enough to
make her forget her first.
The trip to the airport took about 45 minutes—enough time to
transform my outfit and freshen up for him. Once we got to the airport, we
didn't have to wait at all. He was standing outside in a gray suit with a white
button down shirt, already unbuttoned due to the heat. Bernard waved at him and
he stepped up to the right side of the door to get in.
"Hi," I said shyly.
"Hi, baby. Wow. You look amazing, as always."
The blazer had come off and the four-inch leopard print
shoes were on. The skirt looked much shorter on me without the blazer. I slid
toward him as he grabbed me and placed me on top of his lap.
"Happy Anniversary," he whispered sensually into
my ear. His nose traced a line from my jaw to my neck and his fingers softly
rubbed the inside of my thigh.
I giggled nervously.
His touch felt so good, so safe.
"One month down, 959 more to go," he groaned, his
hands now on my back, pulling me close.
"That's 80 years, A."
"I'm in love with a math genius."
This is a powerful and emotional read about one woman’s struggle to
decide which path her future will take.
‘I’ve learned that giving your heart away to someone is the bravest
thing you can ever do. The one moment that it’s cherished, no matter how brief,
can help it to survive a lifetime.’
Jesse is Isabella’s first love and a man she will always have a place
in her heart for. Jesse is very intense and domineering and strives to prove to
Isa that he is worthy of her love.
‘So this is what it feels like to be in love. My pulse raced and my
knees went weak, and in that very moment, I knew the course of my life and the
integrity of my heart would be forever linked to this one sweet kiss.’
Alex is one of Isa’s best friends and makes no secret of his feelings
for her. He loves Isa for who she is and wouldn’t change her for the world.
Alex yearns for Isa to return his affection.
‘Never accept a counter offer. If they weren’t good to you the first
time, they’ve lost their chance to gain your loyalty and trust. What makes you
think it will be better the next time?’
How do you decide between two very different men? One who has forever
stolen a piece of your heart and one who loves you the way you deserve to be
loved.
An amazing book about the power one woman can hold over two very different
men. The author has poured her heart and soul into every word. Very highly recommended!
