She was an enigma. Her skin was bronzed to perfection, a constellation of freckles that grouped together closely on her nose slowly seeped out onto her cheeks. Messy chocolate locks that seemed to wave and curl at the oddest angles. Feline eyes that drew anyone in. My interest in her never seemed to fade through the years. I loved her to pieces and it would always remain that way. Marcellus Jones has had a crush on the same girl since his sophomore year of high school, now in his sophomore year of college, he still views her as the most beautiful woman in the world, although she has no idea who he is. That changes one night after Reese and her fling call it quits and she meets the tattooed football player with neatly laid plaits on his scalp. She was immediately drawn to him as he is her. The two navigate being college athletes and their budding romance as well as their pasts catching up with them. This is a story of friendship, love, and overcoming the horror of the past.

It's been thirteen years since Tyler has seen Mikey for more than just a handful of minutes in a passing visit. A ten year age difference hadn't stopped her crush, not after the fateful day he'd saved her life; he'd been home for Christmas, visiting his sister Val, who's married to Tyler's older brother, Reggie. Val had given birth to their first baby on Thanksgiving, and that Christmas was the first time Mikey was coming home to see him. As Tyler had been leaving the house, she'd slipped on the ice, hitting her head and knocking herself out. If Mikey hadn't found her when he did, rushed her to the emergency room, she would have died of hypothermia. That's when her obviously unreciprocated crush had started. She'd known him all her life. She was nothing more than his best friend's kid sister, the one he barely saw since making it to the N.B.A. and having spent the last ten years playing out in California. But he's home now, having been traded to Washington, the same city Tyler just happens to be going to school in. At twenty-one can she finally catch his attention? Can she finally tell him about her crush? The one she's had for the last five years. Will he ever see her as anything other than his best friend's little sister?
