Hope for Her - Hope

Two desperate souls looking to start again. Will their tenderness spell forever... or take a fatal turn for the worse?

Carrington Olivia Butler is ready to step into the spotlight. Cautiously eager to shed her siblings' shadows, the shy people-pleaser is crossing her fingers that college will help her break out of her shell. But fielding suitors isn't her strength, and she's torn between one classmate's captivating intensity... and his best friend's easy charm.

Joshua Elijah Griffin, IV believes he'll never make the grade. Convinced his mother killed herself to escape the pressure of the family name, the struggling addict forces himself to attend his father's alma mater in an attempt to finally impress. But he soon finds himself playing the unfamiliar role of hero when he steps in to save a gorgeous freshwoman from a slimy frat brother's cocky advances.

Surrendering the attention of others and attracted by the troubled man's need for her affection, Carrington becomes swept up in his exhilarating upswings and darkest spirals. But when Joshua's father rejects Carrington and life begins tearing them apart, he falls off the wagon in a desperate attempt to soothe his heartbreaking anguish.
