DallasHe was the beginning of my heart . . . and the end of it.I was only fifteen years old when he claimed it and twenty when he took it with him. They say what is meant to be will find a way. But when you have changed to the point of no return, how can anything ever be the same? Seven years later, Dean Martin waltzed back into my life in hopes of resuming what I had fought so hard to forget, but he was in for a wake-up call. I was no longer the naïve woman he had left . . . and I was no longer his. I met the love of my life and my soul mate when I was fifteen. I knew that; he knew that. He wanted that girl back.I wanted to forget she ever existed.DeanWhat I thought was my predestined path was very much an illusion.Living seven years with regret, I realized too late that I was broken, and that I only had myself to blame. I thought love could wait . . . but it didn't. We'd had it all those years ago, and then I foolishly left it behind. She was all that mattered. She was all there ever was. There was no life without Dallas, no reason . . . except her.No matter how hard she tried to convince me, I knew I had to once again make her mine, to make her remember . . . the fall. The Reluctant Romantics Reading Order#1 The Fall#2 The Mind#3 The Heart*All books in the series must be read in order.Companion Books to The Reluctant RomanticsRoom 212 - prequel to The Reluctant SeriesNever Me - Cameo/crossover appearances of Never Me characters in Book #3 The Heart
