Publisher's Synopsis
Tinsley Moore
Perfect. That is what I'm expected to be. The perfect daughter, the perfect student, and to eventually lead my own perfect life. My dreams don't matter-I must follow the plan my parents have laid out for me. Loss and sorrow drive my dad's controlling behavior and make our home feel like a tomb. The one time I went against everything to do something for myself; it blew up in my face. Now that one mistake is showing up everywhere. He is part of the football team, and so are half of my friends. When I think things can't get worse, Donavan Jones joins Key Club, MY club-- I'm the president. The hurt he caused, that I thought I buried deep enough to never feel again, is starting to sting.
Carefree and easy going. That is what everyone thinks I am. I have a reputation for taking nothing seriously, except football. I work hard to play the game. What they don't know is that my home is a battlefield, and my dad doesn't approve of my choice to play a game he hates. We haven't been a family for eight years, since the one person who held us together left us all to figure out life alone. Tinsley looks at me like I'm the biggest mess up when all I want is for her to see I'm more than what everyone thinks. An anonymous app connected us in the past but ultimately drove us apart in the end. When my dad makes me join Key Club, it feels like the universe is giving me another chance. When opposites attract, can they find the one thing that holds them together? When they both have to face the devastating losses that have driven their families to breaking; will they lean on each other or close themselves off? Read this young adult romance that deals with more than high school crushes to find out.
This story contains off the page loss and the devastation it can have on families.
