Christopher
Moore gave up on the idea of love years ago. Now, his life is an endless string
of parties and an even longer string of girls. Enjoying the physical perks with
none of the emotional mess, hes convinced everyone that hes satisfied—everyone
but himself.
Samantha
Schultz has moved on with her life. Finishing her student teaching and living
with her boyfriend, shes deluded herself into believing shes content. But there
is one boy she never forgot—her first love—and she keeps the memory of him
locked up tight. She will never allow any man to break her the way Christopher
did.
When
Christopher's sister and her family move into a new neighborhood, Christopher
is completely unprepared to find Samantha living at the end of the street.
Memories and unspent desires send them on collision course of sex, lies, and
lust. But when guilt and fear send Samantha running, Christopher will have to
fight for what has always been his.
There are few things that hurt so much as a broken heart.
It’s physical.
Intense.
Real.
It doesn’t matter which way
you slice it, analyze it, or add it up, you’ll always come up
with the exact same sum. The worst part is there is no antidote for this
affliction.
They say time mends all things.
I say they are liars.
Maybe it subdues, burying it beneath all the new memories we make,
tucked under the burdens and joys and new experiences that life layers on over
the years.
But that broken heart?
It’s always right there, lying in wait.
Ready to crush you when you’re slammed with
that errant, unexpected thought.
But nothing could have prepared me for this—what it would feel like to look up and find him standing inches from
me.
From the moment we met, he always had the power to bring me to my
knees. I should have known his control over me would never diminish or dim.
I should have known it only would intensify.
Maybe I should run.
But somewhere inside, I know he’ll never let me get
far.
