Synopsis

"Two souls are sometimes created together and in love before they're even born." -F. Scott Fitzgerald

When eight year old Beau Ruby met twelve year old Colton Caine, she had no idea she was meeting the love of her life. She had no idea she'd grow up with him, with his story weaved into her world as much as her own.

She had no idea that at eighteen she'd make a terrible mistake and leave him and everything she knew behind. She had no idea that she'd tear his heart completely apart.

She had no idea that returning home and finding out that Colton was engaged would hurt her so much. She had no idea if he'd ever love her again.

She had no idea if it would ever return to the way it used to be.
