Dylan Mathews, the only girl in a family full of overbearing brothers, has had an easy life since her Ben McKenna has been away. But when he arrives with her twin brother, Jonah, she is only reminded of the frustrations that come along with his presence. This time he stares at her differently, but his tormenting banter has remained the same. Ben McKenna has not been home in five years. Phoenix, Arizona is a place that represents everything in his life that he would rather avoid. His neglected mother is depressed and has a certain way of taking it out on him. His father is absent but dominating, nonetheless. His only solace in a city that he hates are the Mathews, a loving family that Ben has found refuge in since he was a small child. Despite their misgivings, it seems impossible for Ben and Dylan to stay away from one another. And just when they think they may be headed for something good, tragedy strikes down on one of them, creating an irrevocable free fall into feelings that have been hidden away for years...
