Chapter 1

Ann, an independent but quiet 18-year-old, moves away from her parents’ home in Ohio as soon as she graduates from high school. Not sure where she should go, she relocates to Los Angeles, expecting her new life to fall into place. But she quickly learns that getting what she wants out of life isn’t as simple as she had hoped. After only a couple of months in California, she falls in love with Carlos, a 20-year-old who still lives with his parents. But once she meets his more attractive brother, she begins to doubt her commitment to him. Conflicted, Ann isn’t sure who she really wants: Carlos, or his brother, Rick.
