Taylor Wood had no idea what she wanted to major in. She just knew it had to do with sports, having been a three sport athlete all her life. She was forced to give up athletics when she tore her ACL during soccer season. Through vigorous months of therapy with her high school's athletic trainer, that's when it finally clicked.

Andy Judge knew he would make it. He had the skills necessary to perform. It was only a matter of time before scouts came knocking on his door. So, when a community college baseball coach offered to let him tryout, he was in shock. 

So, what happens when two freshmen college students meet in the athletic training room? A friendship they had no idea they were going to need forms.

"Daniel please-" He growled cutting me off mid sentence; making it obvious that he's pissed beyond belief. I never knew that telling him my past would upset him, at least not like this. I thought that after all we've been through, after everything that we have told and done together, that it would be okay to open up to him. I've never told anyone this before and when I finally do, to Daniel Tyson, he gets more mad than I have ever seen anyone in my whole life. His body snaps towards me; his normally bright eyes are dark and full of emotion and his face is hard with anger. "Why didn't you tell me?!" Danny exclaims, making me flinch. "I'm so sorry, I thought-" I sob and his hands wrap around my wrist and yank. "You thought what?!" More hot tears go down my face. "I-" "You thought that I wouldn't care? That I wouldn't understand? Why can't you get it through your thick skull that I will ALWAYS care about you Nida?!" Suddenly, Danny's lips are crashed into mine. ••• Nida Vargas has been through hell and back trying to look out for her family and take care of herself at the same time. Ever since she started high school, it's been all about getting into college and making a better life for herself. Her family up and moved to Cleveland as a senior in high school and she's more focused than ever about school and only school. Until Daniel Tyson stumbled into her life, the schools star quarterback and most popular guy in school. The two most unlikely people to have any sort of connection: the New Mexican-American girl and the star quarterback. But the longer they know each other, the more their lives change for the better.

Tommy Shultz is the jock that every woman wants and every guy wants to be. He's good looking, surprisingly intelligent and confident. His college scholarship is going to take him to the big leagues and he isn't afraid to break hearts along the way. But behind closed doors he hides a secret. A dark one. He can cover up most of the bruises. His father usually aims for the torso anyway, but his spirit is nearly broken and he's willing to end it all just to keep his secret. He stands on the roof of his dorm; toes hanging over the edge, tears in his eyes. All it would take is a simple fall. "Don't do it." Comes a meager voice from behind him. Nathan Lewis is the token nerd. He's an outcast, beyond smart and totally socially awkward. When the Quarterback found out this year that Nathan had a crush on him, he hadn't let off; picking on Nathan for being gay and crushing on a guy that he could never have. "Don't do it." Nate said again to Tommy. With that phrase, something changes within Tommy and a story begins: a story of youthful self discovery and love; tutoring becomes a friendship which grows into an unbreakable bond that will be tested. Can Tommy accept his newfound self? He knows his father won't. Can he push forward, or will he end it all? In this telling of the classic Jock/Nerd fantasy, bonds of love will be formed, hearts will be broken, and tragedy will change the reader forever.
