Tara Jenkins and Justin Westcroft used to be childhood BFFs. Now in high school, Justin’s a popular, all-star athlete, and Tara spends her days admiring him from afar. But when Tara saves Justin from nearly drowning in a freak accident, he’s unable to get her out of his mind. In no time at all, Tara and Justin fall deeply in love. And even though it’s only high school, they seem destined for a Happily Ever After.
Until tragedy strikes—and this time, Justin’s not so lucky.
Tara passes through her days as a shell of her former self: Justin’s dead, but she can still feel his presence, and she can’t seem to let him go.
But there’s a reason for that, and it’s not just grief: Justin is In Between, and he’s still holding on.

There's different theories about high school. Some say in high school you'll have the best time of your life, and some say it's complete hell, yet very stressful. Both of those do seem to be true, but it doesn't have to be bad like they say it is. It takes a group of people that has a special bond to make it through high school.
That's where Xavier Dixon comes in, entering his Junior year, along with his new best friends he connected with this past summer. As long as they stick together, anything is possible... but they can't escape the obstacles Oakland High has to offer.
