Reese

Cooper Reeves was the boy-next-door. Every milestone, every memory of my youth was entangled with his.

We were inseparable...until college.

It wasn't his friends, girls, or even sports that came between us - it was me.

Tired of being in the friend zone, I finally made a move. Turns out it was the wrong one.

Cooper walked away to play his first year of professional football and left me behind with a broken heart.

It's always been her. Even before I really knew what love was, Reese Latham was by my side, making me swear we'd be best friends forever.

And we were...until one night changed everything. I knew how she felt because I felt it, too, but I pushed her away to save our friendship.

The longer we're apart, the more I realize she's not only my best friend, Reese is the love of my life.

I was kidding myself thinking I could let her go because now I know that living without her is the worst kind of agony.
