Friction

Blakely or Blake as she's now known is new in town wanting to run away from all the problems she left behind in New York. Like an alcoholic abusive father a dead mother and a dark past. Ryker the all American college student just wants new friends. After accidentally hitting the new girl in the head with a soccer ball he's intent on getting to know her no matter how much she doesn't want to open up. Then there's Jonah a quiet loner a closeted bad boy and Ryker's brother. He's the TA for one of Blakely's classes and soon falls for her as well even though the rules specifically state he can't date one of his students. What he doesn't know is Blakely has fallen for him too but something...or more specifically someone is keeping them apart. A somewhat cliche coming of age story about facing the demons of your past learning to embrace your present and future and finding love along the way.
