I Want It That Way by Ann Aguirre is the first book in her 2B Trilogy. An angst filled tale of love persevering through all of lifes hiccups and trials. 
 Nadia is a college student studying to be a special education teacher. She is taking full time classes and working at a local daycare center AND training at a local high school. She is determined to succeed. When she meets her new neighbor Ty she is intrigued. 
 Ty is aloof, distant and has earned an early nickname of Grumpy Ginger (LOL). He also has a young son and isn't willing to bring anyone into Sam's life that would be likely to leave again. Ty is falling fast for his new neighbor despite his best intentions to keep Sam safe from any of his relationship drama. 
 A happy ever after ending with a great build-up of a story line.
