Josie McCall and Timothy Matthews were in love. Until, they weren't. It's been two years since their breakup, and Tim is a dedicated university student. He's been buried in books and homework since that dreaded day, and he's had little time to focus on his romantic life. With graduation just around the corner, he's worried about his future and what it will hold - or possibly, who. Josie is a diehard romantic. Her whole life she's pined for "The One". The one who will make everything okay, the one who can take her flaws and find the beauty in them. And now that she's engaged to Nathan, she's found it - or so, she tells herself. One day, Tim and Josie find themselves reconnecting, and as much as they don't want them to, old feelings resurface. Told from different times of their lives together, Tim and Josie's journey in and out of love is left with one question: When it feels like first love stays with you forever, was their breakup a mistake?

No, no, no. no! This can't be true what in the devil's name? Why am I seeing Jaro Briggs? After 20 fucking years. Did I lose my mind? "What are you doing here?" I asked scared, tense, humiliated and feeling every fucking feeling. "I might ask you the same." He said with a smirk. Damn him how in the world is he still managing to look that hot. He hasn't changed much except aged a bit yet looking lesser than his age. "This is my house for goddamn sake," I yelled. "I thought this was Mr Holder pipes house." "I am his wife. Which makes this house also mine!" "So you are a married woman with kids ? How riveting yet dumbfounding". He said. Is he complimenting me or commenting on me? "What did think I would be? A pole dancer?" I sighed. "More or less. Yet you have remained that beast always devouring anything that gets in its way." He accused. How dare he talk to me in this way, in my very own house. "It's been almost 20 years, Jaro don't act like you still know me!" I called out. "Is it so? Then why do I see you staring at my pants ?" He said with that damn smirk again. Why in the hell he showed out of nowhere and tormenting me? What he and I had is in past. Water under the bridge. "Don't tell me you still expect me to do all the things we did as teenagers." He said calmly. ************************ Michelle is an ordinary vet doctor, with a lovable husband, charismatic daughter and stupendous son.
