21 Stolen Kisses

<span><i>When I first met him I resisted. </i></span><br /><span><i>Like any forbidden love, I told myself he was a crush, and it would pass.</i></span><br /><span><i>That was a lie. It never faded.</i></span><br /><span><i>And I never expected he would fall for me just as hard. </i></span><br /><br /><span>There were so many reasons that should have kept us apart, least of all, the decade that separated us.</span><br /><span>Growing up in New York City, I learned early on that love is a double-edged sword. </span><br /><span>Love broke up my parents, love took away my friends, and love -- the big, intense, never-been-like-this-before </span><span>love -- landed me in therapy.</span><br /><span>Now I'm heading to college, and it's time to give love a clean slate again. But, can I really start over when he's still in my life?</span><br /><span>Because the one man I've always wanted, is also the only guy I absolutely can't have...</span><br /><span>And he wants me just as fiercely. </span><br /><br /><span>Can I settle for anything less than the love of my life? </span>
