Book overview

From USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Jenshak comes a brand-new cover for the first in a YA romance series that follows Frost Lake High School's state champion soccer team. This book will include a special inside cover.

Frost Lake High's new soccer star, the team captain's ex-girlfriend, and a dare that changes it all.

Two broken hearts. One reckless kiss. And a love that could cost them everything.

When Austin Keller's family moves across the country for his chance to play with the prestigious Frost Lake soccer team, he's ready to seize the opportunity. But on his first night out with the team, a dare to kiss the team captain's ex-girlfriend sets in motion a rivalry that threatens his future.

Claire Crawford was once an aspiring figure skater, but a recent injury has changed everything. To make matters worse, her boyfriend dumped her. Starting her junior year, she's unsure of her next steps. One thing she knows for sure: she's not falling for the new guy. That electrifying kiss at the bonfire? Already forgotten...almost.

He's chasing his dreams. She's lost hers. The more Claire tries to push him away, the harder he works to win her over. He's stealing her heart, and he's doing it for keeps.
