From dealing with growth to discovering first love, this book tackles the struggles often faced in teen years, giving hope for resolution and reaping fear from its initial worries.

Poor Amaya didn't know when she made this decision, that a smooth-talking and annoyingly attractive, football player could be just as distracting, if not more, than employment. ***************************** Theodore Thompson, or as he liked to be called Theo, is a hot shot football player quickly climbing the charts and earning many of the NFL scout's watchful eyes.
