Sometimes all it takes is a moment for everything you thought you wanted to change. Ceceila: I was used to being on my own. Lost and lonely, I couldn’t wait to graduate and watch my judgmental little town fade. All I had to do was survive the rest of high school and I was free. I wasn’t going to let anything hold me back. Craig: I’d almost achieved what no one else in my family had—all I had to do was complete my student-teaching assignment and I’d have a college degree. I was ready to put down roots and start my life. Nothing was going to stand in the way of my dreams. A student and her teacher. A coach and his athlete. An unexpected friendship. Forbidden feelings between an unlikely pair. Neither is playing a game they can win.
