Monroe Clark & Donovan James were childhood best friends.
He'd always been in love with her.
She'd always been afraid to love him.
She leaves in the middle of their senior year.
Without explaining why.
Without saying goodbye.
They reunite in college.
But gone is the sweet boy Monroe once knew.
In his place is an arrogant and cocky football player with a bad attitude and an even worse reputation.
She agrees to fake date him to clean up his image.
But as old feelings start to resurface they start to fall for each other again.
But is Monroe willing to open up and explain why she left?
And even if she is, is Donovan willing to trust her again?
Because like J.Cole once said:
Fool me one time shame on you but fool me twice...
