She’s the best violinist her inner-city high school has ever seen. He’s on the fast track to nowhere.
For Nick and Fallon, it starts with a kiss—a kiss that becomes the calm before their storm. Because Nick is not the only guy in love with Fallon, and Fallon is not the only girl with her eyes on Nick.
As Nick’s past returns to haunt him, Fallon’s home situation will shift from precarious to dangerous, leaving them both to pick up the shattered fragments of a life from which they were desperately trying to break free.
Can Nick shed his slacker skin to prove himself worthy of the girl he fell in love with on a playground almost a decade ago?
Can Fallon take a leap of faith, opening her heart to the guy who, despite his shadows, is promising to be her everything?
Because if they can, they just might find a happily ever after they were too scared to even imagine.
