This Love Synopsis:
Amber's always planned to leave her overbearing mother and their stifling small town behind as soon as she graduates. That is until her car breaks down outside Bale and Son's mechanics and she meets Freddy Bale. A boy who'd rather live in the moment than make a five-year-plan.

Ignoring her friends' warnings, Amber puts all dreams for her perfect future on hold, and dives into the romance heart first. On their last day of school, however, Freddy decides to call off their relationship, and Amber does the only thing she can think of: Run away and never look back. Just like she'd always planned.

Ten years pass before Amber sets foot in town again, only returning to look after her ailing mother. While Freddy wants to make amends, Amber is confronted with her own wrong choices from ten years ago. Choices that could change the lives of everyone she's ever loved.

When first love is given a second chance and the secrets of the past come hurtling into the present, will Amber and Freddy be able to lay their mistakes to rest and make this love the strongest one of all?

Excerpt:

Who was it? Isaac calls down the stairs. Of course he does. Firstly, he couldnt hear me earlier when I was calling for breakfast? Secondly, who exactly does he expect it to be, he doesnt know anyone here?
I do. 
Oh, God. I do. 
Leaning against the door I take a deep breath, my limbs still frozen in a never ending shocked spasm. That was much, much quicker than I expected. Much quicker. When I decided to come back, I had it in my head that perhaps one day I may bump into Freddy Bale, he would probably be married, and yes, it would sting like fuck (I do have double standards, I know this) and we would just casually wave across the street and walk along. My ideas were always surrounded by this comforting rosy glow. 
I never expected him to turn up on my doorstep within hours of me being home. I never expected for my lungs to fail the moment I saw him. And I never expected I would blurt out my married name — which isnt even my real name anymore — and watch a flicker of hurt flash across his ocean blues. 
You were never in love with him. You were never in love with him. You were never in love with him. 
These words are the cement to my castle. The castle I have securely locked myself in for the last ten years, keeping my memories on the outside of the walls. I was never I love with him. 
It was lust. A childish crush. 
Okay, if I were to be honest, I would admit that the castle walls are sometimes made of jelly and prone to wobble. I have managed in the last ten years to reduce my Freddy thoughts to three a day, and I believe that to be successful progress. 
Now . . . now Ive seen him, every moment we ever spent together is back in my head, just like it never went away. Freddy Bale.
