How many times can a single heart break?

As a sixteen year old girl, love finds me early, but so does crushing pain. We're Jake and Mackenzie, and I thought we would be forever. After all, we built our love one summer at a time for nearly seven years.

Jake is a damaged boy bordering on manhood; I become his cure. He's my first, my one and only, or so I thought.

Two years later, I'm still nursing my wounded heart, when I start college and meet Gavin. Devilishly cute, dark to Jake's light, Gavin's sweet and patient. Falling for him is easy once I let go of the past.

But an open heart invites tragedy, and that's exactly what finds me. However, this curveball knocks me right back into Jake's orbit. Even after ten years apart, the pull toward him is one I can't deny, no matter how much I try to fight it.

Will he heal me and mend the broken parts of my life? Or am I destined to live with the shattered pieces?
