But before we could figure out what it meant, my parents moved me to Florida. Fourteen years later, life had done its best to erase him from my heart—until he walked back into my life unexpectedly. He’s no longer the shy boy I once knew; he’s the confident, magnetic billionaire CEO of the company I work for._
