Eighteen-year-old Rylee Evans just moved back to Charlottesville, VA, with her dad and sister after being gone for three years. She's not the same girl she was when she left, or so she thought. 

Austin Hayes is the good-looking, arrogant, popular guy at school. And the one person that Rylee wants to avoid more than anything. It's no secret that he made her life miserable in middle school. 
Austin needs to keep his grades up to stay on the football team, so he needs a tutor. Except there's only one tutor available...Rylee. 

Austin and Rylee find themselves quickly falling for each other, except Austin's ex-girlfriend refuses to let him go that easily and starts causing problems for them. Rylee has the life she's always dreamed of: a loving boyfriend and a bigger circle of friends. 

There's only one problem...Rylee's father. Will Rylee have the courage to keep what she's found with Austin or let her father tear them apart forever?
