Fate has kept them apart for twenty years.
Their roads hadn't crossed and the stars didn't align until now...
Their roads hadn't crossed and the stars didn't align until now...
Matured, more experienced, pierced, tattooed and hot as hell, Adrian steps back into Mia's life to reclaim his first love.
And the moment she sees him she can't even remember her own name.
Adrian Reed had always remained in Mia's heart. After all, he was her first boyfriend and the man she'd lost her virginity to, but that was twenty years ago. His sudden appearance at a bar, on a girls night out, has Mia acting like the fifteen year old girl she was when they parted.
But life now is not as simple as it was twenty years ago. With two kids, a hopeful ex-husband and new insecurities, Mia finds opening up to a new relationship more challenging.
Will she give her first love another chance, or will she push him away, this time for good?

3.5 Stars
This
book was slow. I had trouble staying interested with the book, but I
had to finish because I had to know what happened.
Mia
is just moving through life. She still has her ex husband in
her life. Almost as if they didn't divorce. She feels
responsible when it wasn't anything she did. She needs to learn to
let go of the guilt and try to move on. She didn't want anyone
else until her first love walked back into her life. But she
was having trouble with letting him in. She doesn't know how
her kids will take her having a boyfriend and how her ex will handle
her dating. Can she open her heart again? Or is she
destined to be alone?
Adrian
had never been able to give his heart to another female. He never
stopped loving Mia. His biggest regret was letting Mia go. But
he can't regret it too much because then he wouldn't have his son.
He is trying everything to gain Mia's trust and make her have
faith in men again. Can he get her to open up? Or is it a
lost cause?
This
book had a great story line and I loved the characters. It was just
lacking something. I needed the 'IT' factor. I recommend
reading this book and checking it out.

~ Excerpt ~
When he pulled away, I was panting and I wondered how I’d find the strength to stand later on, but it didn’t matter.
“I can’t make it upstairs,” he said, trailing his kisses down my neck and chest while he adjusted his straining crotch. I’d never seen jeans burst at their seams, but I was beginning to believe I’d get a chance tonight.
“I don’t think I’d let you even if you tried.” My voice trembled.
“You’re nervous,” he said.
I nodded.
“So am I.”
He looked at me from above.
“Really?”
“Yes. We didn’t know what we were doing back then. Now there are standards and expectations.” His lopsided grin that captivated me returned.
I reached up to touch his cheek with my palm, smoothing it along his freshly shaved jaw. “No expectations. I just want you. I want us, even if it’s as clumsy as when we were young.” Although something deep in my belly told me my body was about to be blessed by this graceful man in ways I hadn’t expected.
Adrian unbuckled his pants and slid them off his hips, which wasn’t easy over that bulge. I remained on the chaise, running my tongue over my lower lip, watching the power of his muscles flex with each move. His arousal strained underneath his boxer-briefs. As he lowered himself to the chaise, I couldn’t get enough of his new body. Nearly naked, he lay at my side, admiring me, tracing his fingers up and down my belly, right around my navel. A rush of goose bumps spread from there in an outward pattern.
A soft moan of impatience escaped my mouth which he immediately soothed with a kiss. At the increasing demand of his swelling lips I opened wider, and he weaved his tongue inside me. I whimpered in response. Kissing him still seemed so unreal. Finally my hands moved and I drew them up his arms to the back of his neck, tracing my fingers along his hairline and then lower to his back. Under my palms, his shoulder blades twitched as his hand skimmed down my body. Adrian’s lower back flexed, and he groaned desire into my mouth.
He braced his forehead against mine, saying, “I adore kissing you,” and then moved his lips to my cheek and down my neck to my cleavage before looking up and adding, “Everywhere.”
