Sometimes life’s unforeseen paths lead us to discovering sides of ourselves we never knew existed. Home has always been Ace Bosse’s place of solace, but returning home for the summer from college, she finds herself building an unexpected relationship with Max Miller, who’s recently returned home from Alaska. Max has lived next door for ten years, and she knows of his reckless reputation, and nothing more.  Max realizes he never knew he had left so much behind, when he left three years ago to find what he thought he’d lost.  Max teaches Ace that sometimes a little crazy is exactly what life needs, while learning that some risks are worth taking, regardless of the risks.  But how do you know when you’ve met the right person? And will they be prepared to experience one of life’s biggest obstacles?   Falling in love isn’t easy, but holding on to it is where the real challenge lies.   ****This is the first book in the series of three, and does end with a cliffhanger. Book two will be released March 1, 2015****
