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.

About Christine:
I love to read, write about reading, shop, write about shopping, three day weekends, high heels
and purses. I’m a wife, a mother, a corporate executive, a loyal friend and a passionate believer
in true love. This is all you need to know about me. If you get my stories, you get my heart.

“Thank you, baby,” he whispered, as he reached across the table to take my hand. We
were dining at our favorite restaurant one night after a late meeting.
“For what?” I lovingly rubbed my thumb on his wrist.
“For being here with me.”

I was so engrossed in the conversation going on behind me that I didn’t respond.
“What?” He chuckled as he caught me smiling at him from across the booth.
“Nothing. These women right behind me are talking about you. The one facing you is
gushing,” I whispered, amused.

This had become an acceptable fact of dating Alex. Even before you saw his face, there
was no use hiding his body under anything he wore. His clothes just hung on him so
perfectly, like a runway model. That night, he wore a white casual button down shirt
over low-slung distressed jeans that had the perfect flair to match his canvas designer
sneakers. His short hair showcased his perfect jaw, his full lips, his round blue eyes. His
clean cut look was tempered by the stubble that lined his jaw and his chin.

“Come sit by me, please. You feel so far away.” His eyes were dancing like little blue
lights on a Christmas tree. I stood up, walked around and slid into the booth with him. It
was like he gave me his consent to claim my territory. He leaned against me, closing the
gap between us as his mouth skimmed my earlobe.
“Much better,” he  murmured. “You know, I don’t care about anyone else but you.”

This story was and emotional roller coaster from the start.  We meet Isabelle who comes from a crazy home and life. Her whole life she has been living in the shadow of someones life if not her mothers crazy sorted life or her fathers then it was in the shadow of her first love. At first I loved Jesse he seemed to love her so much but as time went on it seemed the only way he grew was sucking the life out of Isabelle in order for him to make it he needed her to give up her life for him. they started with a sweet loving relationship and as it grew and they grew it seemed more and more  controlling Jesse became soon he was controlling where she went who she saw what she wore she lost her self .  I was so happy when Alex came along and helped her see the light and help her free her self of the crazy and show her how to live for her self again he was so patient picking up the pieces when she fell apart he was so loving and forgiving.  It truly showed how much he loved her when they moved away for many yrs he gave up his family to make her happy so they could build a relationship with no interference from her family or her past .  First loves aren't always forever sometimes they are meant to teach you so that you can find a love that lasts.
