When Katherine “Kate” leaves for her freshmen
year at college, a grounded and stable piece of her is missing. She
pushes away the ghosts of her past, determined to start her college life
single, carefree and distracted.
Throughout high school Kate was reserved and shy,
with little experience. Now, on her own, with little holding her back,
Kate is ready to branch out. She bonds with a tight knit group of friends
and even starts casually dating. What starts out as innocent flirting on
the tennis courts slowly turns into a friendship and eventually something more
complex. Reed comes into her life giving her the distraction she craves
more than anything; but is she ready to give her heart away so easily?
Things get complicated when Kate’s ex-boyfriend
and first love continues to pursue her. Kyle deeply regrets breaking her
heart when he left for college the year before and is now on a mission to
reclaim her. Kyle’s persistence and relentlessness is nothing short of
obsessive. He will stop at nothing to win her back and prove his love.
Kate finds herself torn between her past and the
unknown of the future. Her determination to stay distracted may just be
her downfall or the beginning of something new and wonderful.
