Young love: unpredictable, fleeting. They say it never lasts.
Falling in love when you’re a teenager isn’t supposed to shape your life, but it has defined us.
I was fifteen when I fell for the boy with stars in his eyes. At seventeen, desperate to fight the currents pulling us apart and against our families’ wishes, I married him. Determined to make it work, I headed to college while he moved across the country, each chasing our own dreams.
Falling in love was easy. Making it work was the hard part.
I watched and cheered from afar as Dean became an unrecognizable A-lister. I spent my days pretending to be happy and to enjoy my normal life while he fell further into the pit of fame, a new tabloid headline every week. Somewhere along the way, we lost ourselves and each other. Just when I thought we were ready to let go, a scandal rocked our world.
Fate had the last laugh. We may be able to give up on ourselves, but we’d never give up on each other without a fight.

Carina Adams, an Amazon best selling author, is an avid reader who loves the epic and unconventional. She has an unhealthy obsession with Stanley Tucci, loves the sounds of Johnny Cash, likes to tell people she has a heart and soul as black as the coffee she drinks (even though she's a Hufflepuff), and dreams she’ll go through the stones and find Jamie Fraser one day. Carina has been writing and creating characters for as long as she can remember, allowing her to fall in love with the next man of her dreams with every new story. None of which are anything like boring Prince Charming. Thankfully, fate stepped in and granted her the ultimate wish—a life full of men. Carina lives in a tiny Maine town with her biker-turned-businessman husband who keeps her on her toes and their two heathens who made her realize that wicked chicks do, indeed, lay deviled eggs.
