Autumn Dorey had no problem leaving her hometown of Newpine and the friends there who’d betrayed her. Everyone thought they knew what happened the spring night Autumn’s world fell apart. Vicious rumors about the incident circulated, and she had to be homeschooled the last year of high school to escape her tormentors. All she wants now is to get away from it all and start over at Cook University. She leaves everything but the memory behind—something she swore she’d never forget—and sets off to rebuild what was broken.
Blake Preston is precisely the type of guy Autumn wants to avoid. He’s gorgeous, arrogant and the college’s beloved football star. As much as she believes he’s someone she should steer clear of, avoiding him proves to be impossible. He shows up everywhere around campus, offering her a no-strings attached friendship.
Autumn can’t deny Blake stirs up emotions she thought fled years ago. But things he’s been hiding begin to emerge and collide with her past, leaving her heart ravaged in their wake.

review:
This book was a good read. At times I was head over heels with this book. I loved Blake and yes his secrete shocked me a bit. That is hard to do! Autumn is like many NA genre lead characters. That doesn't take away from her at all! She has a troubled past and I applaud the author for making her strong enough to stand up to that past. I hate a weak victim that is more about the pity and less about overcoming tragedy.
A good story line. Like many other NA books, but with its own unique spin. I really enjoyed the read. A great HEA story that had me turning page after page. If you like NA then you will love this book. I couldn't put it down.
