Love can be a confusing thing, an elusive thing to chase. And finding it, and having all the factors line up. Maybe you meet right after one of you gets married, or decides to take a job cross country. So not only are we looking for true love, but we have to time it right or it won't work. That's where this story begins, by finding true love. No the factors did not line up. I had missed my window by a little bit. But I was determined.

I would never give up on love, not even if it took years. This wasn't something I set out to do, fall in love with someone so far away that, whether or not she was happy, Janelle was not available. There was family to consider and other road blocks I was never privy to. But all I knew was that I was feeling true love for the first time in my life, so yes, I kept the blinders on. So what you hold here is the tale of something special.
