If love is an addiction, your first love is the first hit.
 
How many of you remember your first love?
 
Because falling in love for the first time…I remember that. And that’s the thing about your first love—we all have a love story.
 
But this isn’t a love story.
This is a life story.
The good.
The bad.
The heartache.
It’s all here.
 
Love is truly a battlefield…
 
Love is scary, and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. When you love someone wholeheartedly, you leave yourself open to being destroyed…and that’s what I did, what I still do even though I know better.
 
But it doesn’t make a difference.
 
The best kind of love doesn’t make sense. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.
 
This one-in-a-million story is mine, and if you take anything away from this book, it would be to never be afraid to love.
 
So, let me introduce myself. You may call me Z.
Buckle up, besties, because this will be a bumpy ride.
 
Love hits you when you least expect it.
 
Are you ready for the fall?
