Mistaking Tradition: The Next Generation

Some legacies are meant to be honoured. Others are meant to be broken.
Growing up, Mikal Parker and Rayn Bradshaw were inseparable. Best friends. First loves. Each other's first everything... until one heartbreaking mistake tore them apart.
Three years later, they're strangers sharing the same hallways at Devenport High. Mikal is the school's star quarterback, carrying the crushing weight of family expectations and a devastating betrayal. Rayn is the newly appointed softball captain, determined to prove herself while protecting the heart Mikal once shattered.
When a class project forces them back together, old feelings refuse to stay buried. What begins as an arrangement with no strings attached soon becomes something far more dangerous as buried memories, family traditions, and long-kept secrets resurface.
In a town where everyone knows their family's history, can they rewrite their own?
Or will the mistakes of the past destroy their future before it even begins?
A story of first love, second chances, family legacy, football, softball, heartbreak, and discovering that sometimes the greatest tradition is choosing your own path.
