Shen comes a quick and touching novella about first loves, teenage regrets, and a bittersweet ending Alex is a taciturn teen with a chip on his shoulder and plans that do not involve having a girlfriend. Lara is the romantic girl who wants a taste of danger...but not enough to risk her entire life. When they first meet, they have one thing in common--an acquaintance neither of them is particularly attached to. What starts as a casual relationship spins into an angsty love story with ups, downs, and heartache. And through this first love, Alex and Lara find out the most valuable lesson life can teach--that love is a lot, but it is not everything.
