The passionate story of Tessa and Hardin continues as family secrets, deep betrayals, and career opportunities threaten to tear them apart.

Tessa Young is an 18 year old college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Hardin, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans.

Life as a Middle School kid is not like a TV show. It's not like your favorite novel. So I decided to make a realistic novel about what it is REALLY like. Strong language, sexuality, love, and some fights. Adults see kids our age to be immature and not knowing anything... Wrong. We know exactly what's going on, we don't know how to stop it, but we know what's happening. It always seems impossible until you get it over with.
