(17 YEARS OLD)  
With a satisfied smile, Dane kissed our joined fingers and started across the field again, keeping me close at his side.  At the edge of the driveway, I stepped ahead and turned back toward him.  He was still smiling, and it was still steeling myself.  
I loved him.  
I loved him more than I had a right to love anything.
“Thank you,” I began, biting my lip to keep my chin from trembling. Suddenly, I was devastated.
“For what?”
“For everything. This night was perfect.”
Dane’s smile turned gentle as he cupped my face.  “And it was just the beginning.”
I nodded, trying to hold it together.  
“Try not to worry.  The people in this town don’t matter. One day I’ll make you see that.”
I nodded again, hoping he was right.  He kissed my forehead before starting to back away.  
“See ya later, alligator.”  His voice was quiet in the stillness, but I could hear him perfectly.  
I didn’t know why my heart was breaking, but it was.  Still, I managed a smile for Dane James as I returned with, “After while, crocodile.”
See ya later, alligator.
That was our beginning.
And this felt like our end.

Blurb:

Dane James worked my stepfather’s fields. He was the boy next door.  

Strong.  
Hardworking.  
Forbidden.

From the moment we met, we were star-crossed lovers—always wanting, never having. We loved each other for most of our lives, but right from the beginning destiny had other plans.  She knew we would fall in love.  She knew we would fall apart.  Over and over again, like the curse of a recurring nightmare.  Or the hope of a familiar dream.   

Our past was tumultuous.  Our future was bleak.  But the one thing we always had was the beautiful now.

Until that was taken from us, too.

About Michelle!
New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, M. Leighton, is a rarely ever comfortable speaking about herself in the third person, but here goes. Michelle is a former nurse who has always harbored a passion for the written word, a weakness for alpha males, and a profound love of all things romantic. Never in her wildest dreams did this Yankee-turned-Southerner imagine her life as it is today. She has the best job in the world, a husband who treats her like a princess, and a dog that's so smart she may one day write a novel, too. You can often find Michelle hidden away in her cave, crafting a new story, or out in the sunshine enjoying some quiet time with her man. Movies, wine, and good food are frequently thrown into the mix, and exercise on days that start with Q. She loves laughter, chocolate, the color red, and you can find out more about her at www.mleightonbooks.com.
