First Love is Overrated
This summer these two broken souls discover if your second love can make you forget your first
Growing up, the Morelli brothers were close
Their kinship sinks deeper than the Titanic the summer they both fall for the same girl. Zakiah always felt Iliana Kaplan's heart belonged to him. All along, it has been their story, until fate removed the blindfold.
Everything falls apart when Zakiah realizes Iliana will never give him her whole heart. This time, the middle brother, Elijah, won't be able to repair the damage. A rift is torn amid all of them, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Two years later, when love comes knocking on his door, Zakiah strays from his motto. He can't pretend the connection he feels with Glory Glover isn't real. He just can't afford to fall victim to love again—already learned that lesson the hard way.
Life drops the other shoe. When his dad reveals who his betrothed is, there's no running from what fate has in store. Can your second love make you forget your first? Zakiah must decide if love only exists in fairytales. No matter what choice he makes, it won't be easy to find what's truly his to behold.
What happened in the spring might've made him forget his summertime dreams, but reality rarely has a silver lining.
Interview with B. Truly
What is your favorite part of the book?
All the drama between the brother love triangle and the main character finding true love again.
Does your book have a lesson? Moral?
The motto would be that your second love can make you forget your first. The moral would be to love yourself and make healthy decisions. Not all love is the right kind or real love. Some love is toxic.
Are your characters based off real people or did they all come entirely from your imagination?
The characters came from my imagination and were inspired by a series where the first love theme left a bad taste in my mouth, because it was a toxic relationship. Just because someone is your first love, doesn’t mean that is your soulmate. I was inspired to write a book on how you second love could be your true soulmate.
Of all the characters you have created, which is your favorite and why?
That’s tough because they all hold a special place in my heart. But if I had to choose one, then it would be Madison Guillory. She was the first character I ever created. Madison also delivers a positive message on self-love and standing up for yourself when you’ve been wrongly done.
What character in your book are you least likely to get along with?
Good question. That would probably be Sean Dwight and Thessalonius Zimmerman in my Temptation Trials series. They were both pompous pigs and I would have a hard time not telling them off.
What would the main character in your book have to say about you?
That I’m a true romantic at heart.
Do you want each book to stand on its own, or are you trying to build a body of work with connections between each book?
The Summer Choice will be a 3-book series when it’s completed. Book 1 and the sequel will be the main character, Zakiah’s story. The 3rd book will be the prequel, Zakiah’s parent’s story.
