For as long as I can remember football has been my life. While I might not have been on the field throwing passes and taking hits like my older brother, I had been there on the sidelines with my big time coach father. Until the day tragedy struck.
Now, football equals nothing but pain for me as I start my freshman year at the school that holds too many memories.
That is until him...

She's a ball of spit fire I don't want to fumble, bring me to my knees. Will she be able to help me save my football career? More, importantly, will I be able to save her?

Popularity, looks, friends, a hot girlfriend and a promised future in football. In one incident that resulted in a horrible accident, he lost it all. The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable.

Best Ranking: #5 in Teen Fiction - Preview- "Do you actually care?" he questioned, raising an eyebrow tauntingly. I grinned, trying to emulate his easy humor. "I mean, I guess I have nothing better to do than listen to you complain about having scholarships most guys would kill for," I teased. "Besides, you're the most popular guy in school. I'm sure everyone will love to read all about dashing Luke's college troubles on my gossip blog. Since I'm a little kid, you wouldn't expect me to take this conversation seriously, now, would you?" Luke reached over and tickled me, laughing. "You're a brat, you know that?" I stuck my tongue out at him, pushing him away. "You know you love it. Besides, it worked.

Losing the love of my life taught me that inactions have consequences. My new bookkeeping job teaches me that numbers don't lie, but people do. Sharing yoga with others is my refuge from the darkness pulling me to stay home. A ginormous pro football player barging into my classes isn't in my rehab plan. Worse, it's the cocky jerk who treats me like I'm too insignificant to remember. If only I could say the same. Sam Pearson is Houston's golden, champion-winning quarterback. He's arrogant, rude, and reckless. His agent, my brother, thinks I can rehabilitate his injured shoulder and spiraling ego to achieve a long-term contract. I think Sam needs a reality smack in his handsome face. I should hate his rebellious distractions, but I can't stop challenging him out of his comfort zone. After losing most of myself along with my other half, Sam's woken me up inside. He challenges me, irritatingly, which is exciting and scary. He's dangerously close to cracking open my closed-off heart, revealing the secrets holding me back. And yet, he might also be the second chance at love I thought I didn't deserve.

Always text the clown emoji if you need an emergency phone call to escape. 3. Never ever let Tate have more then 7 beers. He always ends up regretting it. 4. Never let Makenzie have Taco Bell, no matter how much she begs. (This one came after a long long night with me and mr porcelain.) And last but not least, maybe the most important of them all. 5. Never ever date each other's friends. I should have followed the rules. Should have fought harder not to break them but I couldn't help it.
