Growing up in the rough streets of Baltimore, Maryland, 19 year old, Storm learned how to be tough and resilient. Her strong-minded nature was forged by the challenges of her city. Everything changed when she met Daquan in the sixth grade. He wasn't just another boy-he stole her heart from the very beginning. Too scared to reveal her feelings, she stayed close by becoming one of his best friends, silently hoping for something more.

Daquan Dailey, an 18-year-old senior at Western High School, is a basketball sensation and a campus legend. On the court, he dominates; off the court, he's just as smooth, leaving a trail of broken hearts behind him. With a basketball coach for a father, the sport is his entire world. His carefree attitude and playful charm make him captivating-but impossible to pin down.

Now, Storm starts to wonder-could she finally have a chance to be more than just Daquan's friend? Or will she always remain in the shadow of his world?All Rights Reserved

His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor.

Rio Valenti has fought his whole life to make it to this point. The start of his professional basketball career is just around the corner. He can't lose focus now, not with his criminal ties hanging over his head. He's on the edge. One misstep, and it's over for him. The rainy college town should have been their safe haven - the wetlands surrounding it a moat separating them from their pasts. The two meet in their freshmen year, with little in common but their social circles. Violet spends her days numb - hiding from the pain in any way she can. Rio runs from his. He's out from dawn to dusk, if not on the court, then scrounging up money for food or finding somewhere to sleep other than his car. What divides them most... is hope. Rio has it. Violet doesn't.
