Prologue

It wasn't decisions my parents made for me. I made those decisions, my family just supported me. Really supported me.
I had it all planned out. I really did. I was also so sure and confident about it. My life, that is. But then I fell in love. Have you ever fallen in love? It's a feeling I can't explain but...it hits you like a wave. A wave of strong, complicated, intense, warm emotions. And when the heart wants what it wants there's no longer turning back.
It becomes a constant fight between your brain and your heart.
Of course the mind is always the one with the facts and the one that's living in reality. Then there's the heart. It's...got a mind of it's own. When you follow the heart it's almost as though you're floating. Almost as though you can do and be anything.
It makes you feel things you've never felt before. Things you'd never imagined you'd feel. I was always so sure that I was in check with my feelings but boy was I wrong. Suddenly, when he came into my life, I couldn't control them!
Worst part is...I didn't even know where they came from! It was all so scary to me but it also felt so right.
I looked at him and I knew. I knew that I'd love him for a long, long time. I knew that I wanted to be beside him for the rest of my life.
At first it was confusing. But as soon as I let my heart decide...it all became so clear. Of all the three guys I unexpectedly, might I add, got involved with...he's the only one that made sense. The only one who felt more like home. The one guy who understood me, not because he took the time to learn more about me, but because he and I were one and the same.
I couldn't believe that I had met someone who turned out to be what I never knew I needed. And I fell for him — so hard!
And I chose him. Despite all the obstacles. I fought to be with him.
