Falling Like This by Bethany Monaco Smith

It’s been a week since I kissed Rae after the State Championship game. And we haven’t said a word about it.
Tonight is the first big party of the summer, and I’m going to steal her away, kiss the hell out of her, make her mine.
At least that’s the plan. Until everything comes crashing down.
What happens at the party changes everything for both of us.
Now I’m broken physically, and Rae is broken is emotionally. She’s hiding behind fake smiles and the walls she’s so good at putting up—walls I’m determined to tear down. But she makes it clear that won’t be easy.
After a summer from hell, the school year begins with everything up in the air. When we’re forced to face our feelings for each other, will we finally give in? Is she ready for this? Can we find our way to each other after everything that’s happened? Or will we fall apart before we even get started?
Will Rae and Aaron finally cross the line and become the something more they’ve always had the possibility to be? Find out in the second book of their love story.
