ABC... Love, one letter at a time...
It's the year 2000, and Brooke Calloway is about to begin high school. She's pretty, confident and personable, with a mature internal compass that is not easily swayed. Observing her mildly rebellious older sister clash with their mother over the years has led Brooke to a firm moral stance when it comes to boys and dating. Eager to comply with family expectations, she plans to focus on academics, extracurriculars and friends during high school.
The plan hits an unexpected bump when her hyper Jack Russell Terrier walks her directly onto the lawn of a cute neighbor boy up the road.
Cameron Harper is heading into his sophomore year of high school, where he thrives academically and socially. Esteemed by teachers for his dedication to learning, he's also a typical adolescent boy who plays sports and loves to bum around his small town of Orange Grove on his bicycle. Unlike most of his peers, Cameron's not in a rush to dive into the pool of high school dating drama.
A chance meeting with the unique neighbor girl from down the street, however, sparks an immediate connection. It's "like" at first sight. An immediate, mutual crush. Soulmates, if either of them believed in such nonsense.
Brooke and Cameron embark on a beautiful friendship, discovering they are able to express just about anything and everything with unfiltered honesty. As things progress, the couple must grapple with the growing intensity of their emotional and physical feelings, while keeping the promises they have made to themselves.
Both are committed to taking it slow, learning about intimacy with tenderness and restraint, writing their love story together one letter at a time.
"Look into my eyes and tell me you hate me Aubry!" He yelled in my face. I looked up, and couldn't help it as I stared at him with wide eyes. It was getting harder to keep up my mask. "You can't can you?" He laughed as the tears started to run down my cheeks. The worst part was he's right, I could never hate him no matter how much I tried. "No Jason, I don't hate you. I just don't love you anymore." I walked away holding on to the pieces of my heart he just reshattered.

After a heart has been broken can it ever be repaired?
Aubry is a girl who doesn't like the word forever. She may have a reason after Jason (her boyfriend of 2 years, the boy she love has loved since 15), breaks her heart, but can she ever see past that to fall in love again? What happens when she collides with Andrew, a handsome, charming, amazing gentleman? Will she open up her heart to him and give him everything? Will she fear the same fate and avoid Andrew? Or will Jason and Aubry reignite an old love?
