Samantha Ridges had it all-- a family, a good education, a perfect boyfriend, and a well planned future. But after she loses her boyfriend to a car wreck in the dead of winter, her world spirals out of control.
Her parents abandon her and her brother has to take care of her, treat her like a daughter. Her education is gone. And a boyfriend is way out of the ball park.
But after meeting Lucas Winters, her brother's annoying new friend at a college party, she can't seem to keep him off her mind. A little drunken mistake just proves that maybe he can't keep her off his mind either.
She's just your ordinary girl. She has silk brown waves. Big chocolate brown eyes. She's really no one special. An average girl. With beyond extraordinary grades. So naturally it's where she's bound to turn when things get tough. She'll bury her nose in her books. Surround herself with schoolwork and block out anyone or anything that would destroy her. She would spend a Saturday night with her textbooks rather than out on the town with her so called friends. She's friendly when she has to be, but also incredibly shy around new people. She's exactly who she wants to be.
He's every girls dream superstar. The ideal boyfriend. The one that any girl would take home to mom and dad. He'll stand below her window and serenade her with beautiful melodies. He'll hold her hand walking to class. He'll smile when he calls her. He'll score the game winning point in any sport.
But what happens when the girl he wants can't seem to understand she's more than just your ordinary girl. She's extraordinary.
