Graham Black is everything she wants. Kennedy Conrad is everything he needs.

Graham has a few rules in life. Play basketball to get the hell out of Tennessee, and if you plan to drop your panties for him to stay, then you better calm down. Graham is a typical American baseball player with the whole world open to him. His devilishly good looks and charm help him get into the beds and hearts of high school girls. Keeping secrets that no one knows, he is determined to escape from his hometown the minute he graduates from school. Nothing should have stood in his way. Until bad decisions pit him against Kennedy Conrad.

Kennedy also has her own list of rules - dance her heart out and live every day without being noticed. Kennedy is sweet and reserved, the complete opposite of Graham. One fateful night, and she will no longer be able to hide from his attention. Kennedy knows he could end up with a broken heart if he lets the guy get closer. When something no one expected happens to her, Graham realizes that the cause of her pain is something he has been struggling with. Is Graham the man Kennedy thinks he is? Or is he still the same person he was the night their worlds collided? Can their love survive the test that is meant to tear them apart?
