After witnessing his younger brother's death in a tragic accident, Jonathan Nelson desperately tries losing himself on the gridiron. No matter how hard he tries keeping his head above water, he's drowning in a sea of grief. Compounding his inability to get his head on straight is Presleyβthe girl who had a complicated relationship with his brother, Jake, and who is pregnant with his child. At first, Jonathan only harbors resentment and animosity to Presley when she moves in with his parents. But the more the two are thrown together, the more his feelings for her begin to change, and the more confusing Jake's loss becomes.
Presley Patterson never imagined finding out she was pregnant just a month before graduating high school. She also never fathomed losing the baby's father to a tragic accident. Needing support for her and her unborn child, she seeks solace by moving in with Jake's parents. She isn't too surprised to find an adversary in Jonathan, but she isn't about to let him ruin the first stability she's ever experienced. Surprisingly, the animosity towards Jonathan begins to fade and is replaced by more amorous feelings. Taking a chance on Jonathan means risking the perfect world she's built for herself and her daughter.
Can the two move on from the specter of Jake in order to find the right way to a future together, or will their wounded hearts remain unhealed?
