Meg is blessed with being a very successful lawyer. But she is considered an Ice Queen by the media and her previous lovers. By the media because she defends and wins even the most obvious and famous murder suspects, and by her lovers because she doesn’t ever let go and love them as they fall in love with her. She knows that she doesn’t deserve love, that’s what was drummed into her since she was a child, so when she fell in love with a married man, she knew that she had to end it before he ended up hating her.

For every woman, there is a first love. And for Meg, Zoe, and Alissa, that love has never been forgotten. Now these three friends have made a pact. In the next six months, they vow to reconnect with the men who touched their lives so long ago.
Meg is blessed with success, yet lives a life without love, haunted by the only man she’s ever wanted, a man who’s still irresistible . . . and seemingly out of reach. Zoe is a once-prominent film star, desperate for a comeback and scared to discover what has become of her hometown sweetheart—the one person who means more to her than fame. Alissa, the darling of Atlanta society, seems to have it all. Then, in one shocking moment, she finds that her life is a sham and that she left the only man who ever really loved her. Now these women will risk everything—their families, their reputations, and their hearts—to take a chance on the alluring magic of first love.
