Seth Johnson: tall, dark and handsome. Being pressured to go to the Olympics for swimming, dealing with his not so perfect family while trying to graduate high school with honors, he has his plate pretty full.
Riley Burbon: protective, possessive and still lovable. Being prepared to take over the karate studio and trying to handle a past without the help he won't admit he needs, the world seems to be a never ending roller coaster.
When their lives suddenly collide, will they be able to fight their demons together and allow themselves to truly be happy? Or will the pressure love demands become to much for them to face in the end?

Losing Grip
Senior year had never seemed so daunting. After her sister died, Avery found out just how much she hid behind Riley and how comfortable it had been to live through her stories instead of living her own. Realizing that and making a change, however, were two different things, as Avery soon understood. But life had not given her much of a choice. Maintaining a safe distance between herself and all those who used to know Riley was her miserable attempt at dealing with the grief. But she saw her strategic plan crumble, forced to face the friends she had been pushing away. The year she believed she could breeze through was revealing itself to be the year she must face all the pain she had been repelling. And there was no one to hide behind now.
