High school isn’t kind to girls like me. I’m the one who freezes when the bullies close in. The one my brothers guard like I’ll break. The one who rattles off random facts to cover the silence, praying no one notices how small I feel. But when Maiken Maxwell transfers to our school, everything shifts. He doesn’t know my past or the cruel nickname everyone else whispers. He just looks at me like I matter—like maybe I’m worth standing tall for.

Junior year should feel like a fresh start. Maiken Maxwell is mine, and for the first time I believe in us—really believe that what we have is worth holding on to. But when our relationship deepens and we start testing boundaries neither of us have crossed before, everything changes. Suddenly it’s not just about stolen kisses and whispered promises—it’s about trust, choices, and knowing how far is too far.

Senior year was supposed to be perfect—Friday night games, late-night talks, and planning the future with Maiken Maxwell, the boy who already owns my heart. But one night changes everything. A party meant to celebrate our last summer together spirals out of control, leaving me grounded and my relationship with Maiken hanging by a thread.

Maiken Maxwell isn’t just the star of the basketball team. He’s the boy who makes my heart race with every smile, every kiss, every whispered word that I’m his. But dating him also paints a target on my back, and Tessa—the queen of mean—isn’t about to let me forget it. Now she’s challenged me to a showdown on the ice, and the whole school is watching. If I fall, I risk losing more than my pride. And with rumors that Maiken’s family might move away, I can’t shake the fear that our fragile first love could slip through my fingers.

Hey, it’s not that hard for a cop to solve crimes if he can time-travel back a week and apprehend crooks before they even walk into the bank. Detective Aaron Mathews, the iPod’s new unsuspecting victim, sniffs around to track down its former owners, and begins to realize God is demanding a whole lot more of him than just lucky junkets to Atlantic City. His hard-boiled agnosticism begins to thaw as he witnesses the Columbine killings up close, and is sorely tempted to undo America’s first mass shooting.

I’ve always believed you don’t need to be psychic to read minds—you just need to pay attention. People reveal themselves every day in ways they don’t even realize. A clipped tone, a hesitant smile, a restless gesture, a word chosen too quickly—these are the cracks in the surface where their true thoughts slip out. Over the years, I’ve learned that the secret to understanding people is noticing those cracks. That’s why I wrote this book: to show you how to tune in to the subtle signals all around you and finally hear the conversations that are happening beneath the words.
