Joanna Jackson Romance

Unfortunately, fate throws her a curveball, and Lexie ends up back in her hometown, with no job and no future. Things turn worst when she comes back home to the reason for her broken heart staring back at her as her brother’s best friend. Will Lexie get hurt again by her high school crush and ex-bad boy, Kevin? Will she return to the city to pursue her career or stay behind for love?

"No! I don't want to dance with you. I don't like you. Why can't you take a hint and stop being so clingy?!, he yelled, breaking my heart into a million pieces before walking out of the hall.”
“I never saw or heard of him ever since, nor did I want to. I had pushed the memories of him and that day so deep in, burying it even. However, I still feel it affecting me subconsciously, as I put up a wall every time I meet someone new to avoid being hurt again. And now, out of the blue, there he stood in front of me right now, as my brother's best man.”

“Just a friend for now, but I promise you, Sarah, one day I will make her mine.”
