There are a million reasons why I shouldn't rekindle my friendship with Nikolaus Valentino.

Two years ago, he promised to keep in touch when my dad transferred back to America... He didn't. To be fair, our dads forbade us from seeing each other; surprisingly, we reunited on a different continent at a private school, playing soccer together again.

While he's grown into six feet of handsome muscle, with more years of potential growth, he has every girl in school vying for him, putting my anxiety-ridden self in a tough place: fight for him and risk putting myself out there just to be rejected again or remain quiet and let another girl win Nik's heart?

Plus, his family has a business that seems shady, mostly because he doesn't talk about it... until it's too late. Now that I know, will I be the one to tear us apart this time?

But there's a silver lining... I learn who I can really depend on in life.

Get ready for a swoon-worthy, edge-of-your-seat YA soccer romance about friends who fall in love.
