A shattering, heart-melting, unforgettable love story that stays with you long after the last page.
When Rune Kristiansen returns to the small Georgia town he once called home, he expects answers — especially from Poppy, the girl who was once his entire world before she suddenly cut him off without explanation. What he doesn’t expect is the truth waiting for him… a truth that will break his heart and test the meaning of love itself.
Poppy Litchfield has always lived with a rare kind of joy — collecting moments, savoring memories, and filling her world with wonder. As a child, she began a special mission: to fill a mason jar with A Thousand Boy Kisses, each one representing a memory so beautiful it deserved to be saved forever.
Rune was supposed to be the one to give her all thousand.
Fate had other plans.
When he comes back into her life, the two must face the past they lost… and the future they may not get to share. What follows is a breathtaking journey of first love, last love, promises that stretch beyond time, and the kind of heartbreak that makes you feel everything.
Emotional, poetic, and devastating in the best way, this novel captures the purity of young love and the courage it takes to love someone when life gives you only a little time.
Perfect for readers who crave stories that make the heart ache, eyes tear up, and soul feel full — this is a love story you’ll never forget.
