Jordan Carter thought she had everything figured out a full-ride basketball scholarship, her dream of going pro, and a boyfriend who always believed in her. But when college life and distance got in the way, late-night calls turned into missed messages, and love turned into silence. And one fight that she thought ended it all. 2 years later, Jordan's back home for the summer, older, tougher, and sure she's moved on. That is, until she runs into Malik Evans, the boy she loved, the boy that hurt her, the one person she swore she'd never fall for again. What starts as awkward small talk soon turns into long conversations, late-night drives, and that same feeling they both tried to forget. But love isn't as simple as starting over not when old wounds still ache and trust has to be rebuilt from the ground up. As Jordan balances chasing her dreams and reopening her heart, she and Malik must decide if the love they lost was meant to stay in the past... or if it's finally time to finish what they started.
