Jonathan Astor is the definition of perfection. The campus golden boy, he draws admiration everywhere he goes and, in the eyes of his peers, can do no wrong. His long-standing, highly public relationship with his high school sweetheart is considered the standard for love. But when the cracks in his carefully crafted life begin to show, that flawless image starts to unravel. And the one person who might be able to pull him back together is the last person he ever expected.
