Tessa O'Connell is a girl with an unbreakable spirit and a strength that will get her through anything. Her goal for her first year as a college graduate is to be fearless and make the best of all the opportunities that come her way. That includes adjusting to her life in New York all alone and a brand new job, all whilst missing her boyfriend as he gets through law school. But with Cole's unwavering love on her side, she's ready to conquer the world and build a life together with the man she's going to marry, even if sometimes she's got to do it all by herself. The insecurities and fears that plagued their relationship have now evolved into a love so strong, it can weather anything-even a long distance relationship. After five wonderful years together, there's nothing that's going to get in the way of their happily ever or is there? On their own for the first time in a long time, Cole and Tessa struggle to make sense of their changed reality which threatens to pull the two away from each other. The one thing they know is that they're meant to be and they'll do whatever it takes to stay together, despite the curve balls thrown their way. With old friends and new, one crazy Nana, stepbrothers and former best friends making a comeback, Cole and Tessa are ready to make the transition into their real life as a couple and this is the story of how two people fight the odds to create their forever. Warning: This story comes with a delectable Cole Stone as you've never seen him before. Suited up, a lawyer in the making, still a little reckless at heart and rough around the edges, he's the bad boy you fell in love with but ageing like the finest wine and all the more in love with his Shortcake.

Tessa O'Connell is a girl as in love as possible. For a moment she had it all: friends, family, and the promise of a forever love. But could she end up losing it all? The crippling pain of heartbreak is fresh, and as Tessa struggles to move on in the wake of tragedy, her goal becomes to protect her heart at all costs. But it’s a task not made easy by the devastatingly gorgeous Cole Stone, who seems to have shattered her beyond repair. As Cole and Tessa manage to find their way back to one another, they embark on yet another new chapter in their lives. While attempting to navigate her first year of college, it becomes apparent to Tessa that everyone has their eyes set on Cole Stone. When status quo, clingy college girls, old insecurities, and her slightly neurotic tendencies cause her to question whether she can actually make the relationship work, it's up to Cole to show her that he's never letting go, not again. But even for Cole Grayson Stone it's not easy to convince his Shortcake of his never ending devotion as time apart, communication problems, and a quirky new group of friends start to unravel the delicate thread that binds the two together. Can the boy who once protected her from the world protect Tessa from herself?

L'amore è un po' come una caduta libera: più intensamente ti innamori, più è doloroso toccare il fondo. E Tessa lo sa bene: dopo la rottura con Cole, è quasi certa che nessuna parte di sé sia sopravvissuta alla caduta. Con il cuore e l'anima in mille pezzi, ogni volta che lo vede, si destreggia in equilibrio precario tra la voglia di urlargli contro tutta la sua rabbia e la sua delusione, e quella di implorarlo di sdraiarsi accanto a lei e stringerla tra le braccia. Perché lei ci aveva creduto davvero, aveva sperato davvero che la loro storia fosse da «vissero per sempre felici e contenti». Eppure la vita è anche questo: le persone si lasciano di continuo, gli uomini tradiscono... Sta a Tessa decidere se continuare a crogiolarsi nel dolore o voltare pagina.Ma non è l'unica a soffrire per questa rottura. Cole, infatti, non se la passa meglio: il pensiero di aver perso la ragazza che amava e di averla ferita lo tormenta, non riesce a perdonarsi per quello che ha fatto, ed è disposto a tutto per riconquistarla. Tessa non si fida, e soprattutto non può permettersi di mettere in pausa la sua vita per lui. Non ora che è stata ammessa all'università dei suoi sogni. Ma si può davvero smettere di amare qualcuno da un giorno all'altro?

Tessa es una chica del montón. Su plan para el último curso del instituto es pasar desapercibida y seguir admirando a su fichaje, Jay Stone, desde la distancia. Eso puede hacerlo. Para lo que no está preparada es para que el hermano de Jay, Cole, vuelva al instituto y encima lo haga dispuesto a cambiarle la vida. Desde que Tessa puede recordar, Cole se ha dedicado a hacerle la vida imposible. Aunque también es verdad que si vas a tener un enemigo número uno, mejor que sea como Cole: alto, buenorro como hay pocos y con unos ojos azules que tirán para atrás. Pero el chico que ha vuelto no se parece en nada al "bully" de antes. Este chico nuevo la desafía, prueba sus límites, la fuerza a sacar a la chica guay que ella se empeña en esconder. Un momento, ¿podría ser que quien ella cree que es su peor pesadilla sea en realidad su ángel de la guarda? Ya lo dice el refrán: quien bien te quiere te hará rabiar. Advertencia: incluido en esta historia viene un chico malo, cuyas contraindicaciones son suspiros pronunciados y risa histérica. Los efectos secundarios incluyen alucinaciones y plantearte si podrías encontrar uno igualito en eBay y pagar por él lo que sea necesario.
