There’s always one man in your life you will never forget and that one special spot where it all began…
Alivia Jones sold her soul to the CEO of Financial Freedom. Sexy, rich and powerful on Wall Street; Brent Atwood wanted Alivia. She wanted his signature on her paycheck. Until she realized he didn’t own her. Alivia resigns, ends her arrangement with Brent and accepts the invitation for her tenth reunion with her friends in Sunset Beach.
She revisits the tall oak from where she watched the sunsets with Jacob Adams. Her childhood sweetheart; the one she left behind broken-hearted. She wondered if there’d been too many miles and years in between. Her doubts are answered when he joins her at their special spot.

“So this is goodbye?”
Alivia watched the tear hit his cheek before he turned away. Jacob Adams stood beside the old oak. His hand rested on top of the heart with their initials he'd carved on the tree for her tenth birthday. Every year on Alivia’s birthday they returned to the old oak.
Alivia anxiously waited to turn eighteen. She’d counted the months since her thirteenth birthday. Five years of endless studies had rewarded her with a scholarship. One that would take her from the small dull town she grew up in. It’s not like she hadn’t told Jacob her plans. He’d been the first person she confided in. Alivia grew up next door to Jacob. She wondered why he reacted differently today. She reached out to touch his shoulder, but he shrugged her hand away.
“Jacob? Why are you so upset now? You’ve known my plans longer than anyone.”
He tilted his head enough for her to see his face. “Seriously Liv? You have to ask?”
The look in his eyes startled her. He appeared angry with her. She tried to recollect if he’d ever been angry with her and she couldn’t. She lifted her shoulders in question.
“Liv, I don’t want to say goodbye. I love you.” Another tear fell and he turned away again.
