Publisher Description
When Carolina and Trevor meet on their first day of school, something draws them to each other. They gradually share first kisses, first touches, first everythings. When they’re together, nothing else matters. But one of them will make a choice, and the other a mistake, that will break what they thought was unbreakable. Both will wish they could fall in love again for the first time—but first love, by definition, can’t happen twice.
Told in Carolina’s and Trevor’s alternating voices, this is an up-close-and-personal story of two teenagers falling in love for the first time … and discovering it might not last forever.

“Gottfred’s characters actually sound, think, and act like real people, not the polished, best versions of themselves. Readers will need hearts of steel not to fall for this love story and its two storytellers.”
