Liz meets Trent her senior year—a wildfire of first love she believes can survive anything. Even his wrongful arrest. Even the town’s judgment. By graduation, she’s certain Trent is her future.
But college reveals a truth she never saw love can feel like devotion… or like a cage.
As Trent’s control tightens, Liz feels herself disappearing—until Dylan, an Army veteran with quiet strength and steady kindness, reminds her what it means to breathe again.
Now Liz must choose between the boy she once believed would be her forever… and the woman she is finally becoming.
A powerful coming-of-age story about first love, deep wounds, and finding the courage to walk away.
Well written, coming of age story of a teenage girl falling for the "bad boy" who is also a bad boyfriend and being swept off her feet by her knight in shining armor. I LOVED it ❤️
