Harry Eastbourne was the golden boy of The Elites Agency. As a special Agent with the fame of a reality star, Harry found himself thrust into the spotlight overnight, the pressure of becoming the best of the best a tumultuous weight on his shoulders. The problem with reality stars is that most of them crash and burn. While having the talent and intelligence to live up to his expectations as an Elite Agent, his personal struggles started to get the better of him. Wrecking his relationships with all those close to him in spectacular fashion, including the love of his life, as well as wrecking his body in the process, Harry found himself amidst scandals large enough to unofficially exile him from England, seeking a quieter professional career overseas. But when Harry finally returns to the English scene four years later, his past returns to haunt him with a vengeance. With personal and professional failures ready to take the lives of the entire Agency and anyone associated with it, it's down to Harry to fix the problems he caused back when he was a troubled man.

More than eight years before the novel opens, Anne Elliot, then a lovely, thoughtful, warm-hearted 19 year old, accepted a proposal of marriage from the handsome young naval officer Frederick Wentworth. He was clever, confident, and ambitious, but poor and with no particular family connections to recommend him. Sir Walter, Anne's fatuous, snobbish father and her equally self-involved older sister Elizabeth were dissatisfied with her choice, maintaining that he was no match for an Elliot of Kellynch Hall, the family estate. Her older friend and mentor, Lady Russell, acting in place of Anne's late mother, persuaded her to break the engagement. Now 27 and still unmarried, Anne re-encounters her former love when his sister and brother-in-law, the Crofts, take out a lease on Kellynch. Wentworth is now a captain and wealthy from maritime victories in the Napoleonic wars. However, he has not forgiven Anne for rejecting him. While publicly declaring that he is ready to marry any suitable young woman who catches his fancy, he privately resolves that he is ready to become attached to any appealing young woman except for Anne Elliot.

One snowy night, Lily Matheson finds herself on the same road she took years ago when she left behind Westfall along with the boy she’d loved for years. Propelled by a burning ambition to prove herself bigger than the small town existence everyone expected her to embrace, she forged a different path that took her far, far away from the future Adam Bishop once hoped to have with her. Counting him as the highest price she had to pay for her dreams, she contented herself with her new life until it became all too clear that the present was no longer a means to chase an elusive future but to hold on to a fast-fading past. In the company of memories, in the town they knew as well as each other, and in a night when time is at a standstill, Lily and Adam discover that to some, your first love could be your last if you’re brave enough to find your way back. *** If you want to fall in love this fall, go check out the profile page for The Best Of Me where first love will be celebrated... http://www.wattpad.com/user/TheBestOfMeMovie ***
