Publisher's Synopsis
It all began amongst the crowd of roaring fans during our high school homecoming week. Our fates collided in a way that neither of us expected. I met Reid Carter, and he had a quiet charm that captured my heart.
The moment our eyes met, our connection was undeniable. The magnetic pull between us defied all reason. Under the sweat and heat of the game, Reid Carter was the most handsome boy I'd ever seen. And it seemed like he couldn't take his eyes off me either. But we're from two different worlds.
I'm a spirited and strong-willed African American volleyball player, and Reid Carter is a gentle, quiet white basketball player. Despite our differences, we shared stolen glances and bashful smiles, growing into a passionate connection that defied high school norms.
We saw something in each other that would join us in ways that couldn't be broken. Developed a love so strong that we didn't know what hit us. Shared our hopes and dreams and imagined the life we'd build together. That's how strong our love was.
Love, however, has a way of revealing its complexities. As college acceptance letters arrived, we realized our dreams might pull us apart. We learn that love, especially young love, doesn't always follow a straight path. The challenges we face will turn our lives upside down, and I don't know if our love is enough.
