Before he was an indie rock sensation, Alex Anderson was mine.

My best friend, my first love, the person who knew me better than I knew myself. Until he walked away and carelessly threw away what we had. Now hes back in our small town, acting like he can easily pick up the pieces of our broken relationship. I have to do whatever it takes to protect not only my own heart, but also my unborn babys.

The first day I laid eyes on Opal Lancaster I knew she was the only girl for me.

It didnt matter that we were only twelve years old. Too many mistakes and miscommunications caused our relationship to slip through my hands, but now Im back in Willow Grove for good, and Im determined to prove to her that the man I am now isnt like the boy I was then. Ill do whatever it takes to show her I can take care of her and our child.
