After twelve years of living in her dream home of New Zealand, eighteen-year-old Lexi is forced by her family to move across the world, back to where she was born. Leaving everything behind, including her long-time boyfriend, Austin, she views the move as the end of life as she knows it.
However, the sudden change turns out to be better for her, yet more complicated, than she ever could have known. As Lexi starts over in a new place, she begins to rebuild herself upon her new friends and a mysterious bad boy, Landon Brown, who may teach her to open up her heart once more.
Back in New Zealand, Austin is devastatingly heartbroken without Lexi...until a new girl moves to town. Taylor Starr swoops in just as he fears he can never love again, and provides him with the responsibility of making the choice that will surely break his heart: Lexi, or Taylor?
This dual-perspective story shows the hardships of moving on and starting over.

"You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain.
