by Sarah HenningA contemporary young adult romance about moving on, finding your place, and recovering after life falls apart.

Enter Alex Zavala, a three-sport athlete who&’s both incredibly cute and incredibly off-limits.

Deal done, Caroline &“dates&” new sports with Alex for the rest of the summer, which is loads more fun than wallowing in despair. Just as Caroline starts to see herself as more than her past athletic successes, she picks up something she didn&’t bargain for: a big fat crush on Alex.
