Hey, Young Love

Book excerpt: After witnessing the divorce of her parents, strong-willed, 18-year-old Giselle searches for the “true meaning of love” within her relationships. While attending Brick City University, she realizes that she has felt less confident in her romantic relationships. At first, the lack of loyalty amongst the men in her life turns her heart cold as ice. But when Giselle experiences her first heart break, she realizes love is not a game. As she begins to search for her comeback love story, she reacts out of guilt, lust, desperation, and immaturity. Her family tries to give her “experienced” advice, but she chooses to ignore them all. Giselle is determined to not subject herself to the same heartache they’ve been through. Therefore, she decides to find a man on her own terms and timing. Giselle believes she can make smarter choices, but will this eager young lady take her own advice? Will she run into the man she was hoping to avoid, or will she succeed at finding love? Will she let her baggage go or carry it with her? On her journey, she may have to shed a tear or more to find a man who will treat her like a Queen.
