THE GOD OF LOVE AND ADOLESCENCE by Miryam M. Roche

is an unforgettable story about a young, attractive, intelligent, and naïve adolescent, Mary Goldberg, who thinks the pool of her parent’s mansion is the perfect place to swim in her underwear at sunrise in spring and summer.  But one summer morning, Pierre Brighton, a handsome and intelligent neighbor is waiting for her and that changes her swimming in the pool forever.  He is two years older than her and has fallen in love with her, but she just sees him as a friend even though he is the type of youth that any female adolescent girl would like to love, but he only yearns to love her who does not even think about romance yet. Will Mary ever reciprocate Pierre's love? If she does, how will their first love change their lives?

When we are first falling in love, we all feel obsessed for the one we love. Therefore, we spend sleepless nights thinking about the one we love, loss appetite, and feel intense energy as our attention is focused on the one we love. This story is about an erotic and rigid adolescent who rejects love at first, but then she cannot stop thinking and fantasizing about the object of her affection.  Wouldn't it be great if we fall in love at first sight with the right person?
