Aaron and Cadence were high school sweethearts and neighbours. They've been together since high school until Cadence left him without even saying bye. Frustrated and heartbroken, Aaron loses himself in alcohol and women he meets at bars and clubs swearing he won't let any woman break his heart again. Cadence never wanted to leave him, but she didn't have much choice. She couldn't have her mom go away alone. Family is important for her, possibly more important than the only man who can put a smile on her face every goddamn day. So even if it hurt her so much, she had to leave for good. Now, eight years later, she comes back in Rosemary Beach after getting an invitation from her father. She thinks she's ready to go back and face everyone until the moment she laid eyes on the blue-eyed man she'd always admired. Aaron. When Aaron sees her again, all he feels is anger, sadness and hatred. He wants nothing more but to hurt her like she did to him few years ago. He refuses to admit that he's still deeply, madly in love with her. ***This is a fanfiction of Abbi Glines' Rosemary Beach series. I wanted her to write a story about one of her characters named 'Thad', but she mentioned that she had no plans to write a story about him. So, I decided to write him one. Though, he's a little different in my story and I won't use the exact same names of all her characters. If you've read one of her books from the Rosemary Beach series, you'll probably recognize some of the characters. I'm also changing a lot of things so don't get offended or mad if I somewhat didn't describe some things correctly.*** <3
