For better or worse, first loves leave a lasting impression.

Garner portrays Hollis Shaw, a celebrated cookbook author whose life unravels after her husband's death. In a bid to rediscover herself, Hollis invites friends from her past, including her high school sweetheart, Jack, played by Timothy Olyphant.

Garner, looking stunning at the series premiere, shared her thoughts on first loves with HOLA!. When asked if those feelings ever truly fade, she confessed, "The feeling of your first love never leaves you." Yet, she revealed she isn't in touch with her first love anymore, though the memory remains vivid.

Love's Many Faces
