When you are entering adulthood, the thoughts of is it right or wrong, should I or shouldn't I, and even what would it hurt if I, consume a large amount of your time. This is the story of a college student on a break, dealing with those issues and making decisions about the future. 
In the late 1990s, that young man starts a job working in a Texas oilfield. It's hot.  He is way out of his comfort zone.  He does not belong there, and he knows it.
Just about the time that he is telling himself, that's it, I'm moving on. He sees something that could change his life. Does he owe it to himself to take action, or should he just walk away? The end result, would it be a good thing or a bad thing? Is he a trustworthy person or a dishonest one?  Either way, he will have to make a decision, and that decision will define who he is for the rest of his life, or will it?

The Opposite of Falling Apart by titanically-
66 parts Complete
WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . . What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart. Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about. To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . . When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start. Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
