Life is sweet until it’s not… I followed my dreams when I wanted to follow my heart. I spent the summer touring with the band. Cruz Winslow is the love of my life and being with him 24/7 was amazing, until it came to an end. I needed to go back to school while he finished up his commitment to Exiled. But, that one decision threatened to tear us apart. And although I knew a long-distance relationship would be challenging—the time change, classes, studying for exams didn’t help. Being away from one another was more difficult than I ever imagined. There was no doubt in my mind he was the one for me, but was true love going to be enough? Because I gave him my heart, and he promised me forever… I’m living a dream that isn’t even mine… As the lead singer of Exiled, I’ve become a household name, and everyone wants a piece of me. I’m trying to maintain a relationship with my girlfriend—but the road was a cruel mistress and wouldn’t let go. I’m chained to my band, chained to my fans, and chained to my family. And I don’t want any of it—all I want is More Jade. After Jade leaves for school, I miss her like hell and backslide into my old ways. It kills me because she’s the one person I don’t want to disappoint. I love her so much, but deep down I know she deserves a hell of a lot better than me. I know I need to set her free. But I can’t let her go… Because what if she doesn’t come back?
