Remember Us This Way by Sheridan Anne

Noah Ryan was my whole life. From start to end, it was always him.
He taught me pain, patience, forgiveness, and the impact of the footprints I will leave in the sands of time. But most of all, he taught me what it meant to truly give my heart to another. It was short-lived and intense—a soul-shattering type of love—but it was mine, and I clung to it right until the end.
Noah Ryan was my salvation.
And I . . . I was his first great love.
