He's Back

"I always keep my promises," he whispered huskily in my ear.

They say one day will change your life, but for Remington it was three.
Three days.
The first was the day her best friend and first love, Chase, moved away.
Next was when her mother died.
And lastly, the third, was when HE came back.

"Chase what's wrong?" I asked lightly toughing his cheek.
"I have to leave," he didn't look at me.
"What do you mean?"
"We're leaving. My dad wants to better his business." he finally looked at my eyes. I wanted to scream, I was losing my other half. He's leaving.
As if reading my mind, he whispers, "I'm coming back.I promise I will," he held out his pinky, a thing we both knew we could never break. I linked our fingers together, nodding.
Sensing my doubt he adds, "Have I ever broken a promise flower?"
He leans in, his lips lightly touch mine. My first kiss. He pulls away and walks away, out of my life.

Remington's life was simple, well that's what everyone thought. Everyone thought she was the quit good girl that miraculously got over her mother's death and the absence of her best friend and first love. But, Remington's life is much different. After her mother's death, her father began to physically and emotionally abuse her. The only thing that kept her going was the lost hope that Chase would keep his promise.

Chase has always loved his little flower, but after leaving her behind because his father wanted to grow his business. And with parents who never seem to be around, Chase's hope of ever seeing his flower again slowly deteriorates. Until the day he gets a call from his father saying they were moving back to the small town of Saratoga Springs, New York.

When Chase finally returns for the girl he has loved since the eighth grade, he feels as though a piece of his soul has finally returned. And she the same.

But both people have changed
And dangers entail for the couple.
Can they survive this rollercoaster of gangs, love, and friendships.
