Most secrets, Valentina has kept to herself though. Nobody but her best friend knows about them. Now though Valentina's life is turned upside down again when she gets stuck with no other then Blake Emerson: neighborhood bad boy, heartbreaker, and all around jerk who has his own secrets. Yet through it all she feels her walls be ripped down by Blake and it terrifies her. Can she truly trust him with her past, with her present, and with all the anger and fear bottled up inside of her? And even more can she open her heart just enough for him to slip in, for him to make her whole again? Or will she close it off before they even have the chance to see that truly they are in love with one another, wether they wanna believe it or not?
