They moved from Arizona to California. About 1/4 into her junior year, Riley had to go to a new school, and make new friends.

That changed when she met Brooke Eckmann. Brooke is also a junior in high school, and is the varsity teams goalie. When they first meet on the field, it was something different. She couldn't stop thinking about her. It was something both of them had never felt before. Things start to happen, and all of a sudden soccer isn't the only thing there for Riley, someone else is too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That is just a vague idea of what this story will be about, read more to find out what all happens and if the two will be together in the end.
