It began with a possessive glance in the height of summer, and they were trapped in the tangled love and hate of youth.
They struggled all the way, covered in wounds, yet never managed to embrace.
Afterward, each reached the pinnacle of their career, but both remained alone for life, with nowhere to belong and no more "us."
Theme: This book is about more than teenage romance. It is also about growing at different speeds. We once promised to meet at the top, only to find that by the time we arrived, our respective "peaks" were no longer the same place. Parting doesn't begin with a breakup. It begins the moment "I've already walked the road you haven't yet."
