Julian Jackson has a short to-do list for his senior year at Crenshaw County High School in Meridien, Texas: football, football, and more football. He knows he''s only got one chance to earn a college scholarship and make it out of his small town, and keeping his head down, his grades up, and his cleats on the field is that one chance.

And then Elijah Vance walks back into his life, throwing all of his carefully-laid plans into a tailspin.

Elijah and Julian used to be best friends, maybe even on their way to something more than just friends. But three years ago, Elijah broke into the school to steal money from the coach''s office, and Julian was the one who turned him inAfter that, Elijah and his family disappeared without a trace. And now he''s back, sitting at Julian''s grandmother''s kitchen table. But time and distance haven''t erased all of their feelings, and Elijah knows that he finally has a chance to prove to Julian that he''s not the same person he was three years ago.

But with secrets still growing between them and an uncertain future barreling towards them, it may be harder to lean on each other than they thought.
