And Charlotte was hit by the lightening, straight to her heart and changed her life completely.
"God.....that summer was the day my life changed forever. The day my heart latched onto another's so severely it was as if they'd become one."
The second part of the heart belonged to Travis Cole, this lanky golden-eyed boy from Ft.Pearce, FL with crooked, boyish smile and A boy with dark brown hair, chestnut eyes and Holy Dimples . Their static electricity zaps them into an orbit of their own and the world becomes a little bit rosier, a little bit warmer for charlotte. Her heart pounding, cheeks blushing, she is swept away and her summers now are set to revolve around this boy. Their love is all blazing fire in stolen moments away from prying eyes. On the beach, in the alleys, secret rendezvous in the night, in the car. "Young love is like a raging fire that can't be tamed. Its addictive and borderline obsessive. Satisfying in every way, yet never getting enough

How true ! How True !
Charlotte has dreams in her eyes and wants a house with white picket fence, kids, dogs, cats and HEA. Travis wants to "To give you everything you just said!"
Swooooooooonthump!!

The story is very Rocky and stumbles upon many roadblocks. They are together, then forced apart, then come again but ripped apart I couldn't place it any trope bucket. Its second chance(s) with heartache and angst soaking EVERY WORD, every page with your tears.
we all have moments we regret. Things we look back on and think, why did I do it? If I would have just done this differently and not said that !
Regret is one of those silent killers !!

The story starts in present day, where Charlotte is being interviewed by Peacocky Cynthia who wants the story to win a place in the Paper she works for, in hopes of a permanent job. She's also joined by Charlotte's best friend, the sassy Maggie. Since Cynthia needs pictures and Charlotte needs closure, the three girls- the most unusual trio embarks on a road trip. A Going back in time sorta pilgrimage to pay homage to the good times which held love, which held happy memories.
"Cynthia is helping them find their missing happy, in turn they help her find it too"!
The writing is amazing, the fact that the story is based on true life events and a true people makes it more distressful. The turmoil, the misery the young hearts go through and a life time of sorrow and suffering made my heart ache so bad. And to think a couple really did go through this ordeal....omg....i can't even !ðŸ˜
I feel as though someone has stabbed me tight through in the chest. I have trouble finding air, my whole world collapses right before my eyes ⬅️THIS ....omg..THIS😢
Paige has done a wonderful job of narrating it with so much emotion and woe, it'll scratch your heart and make you bawl, non stop.
