Some souls are intended for more than one great love, for tragedy. I’m one of those souls.I saw Tate first. It was hard not to, with his boy-man muscles and shaggy hair. But I fell in love with Holt. You could say it was Holt’s charming smile that won me over. Or maybe it was simply the easy confidence with which he knew I was his, and he was mine.Our love was a thing of youth. It was rich with foolish hopes and big dreams. It was fast, and hot, and innocent.Holt was supposed to be my forever. But life isn’t always so simple.Sometimes we’re forced to face hard choices. My hard choice came in the form of two pink lines not long after Holt was drafted to play pro hockey—his dream.Suddenly, my dream looked different.
