Nikki Vataro knew from a very young age that she was different from the other kids. She was smarter than the others were. Sometimes even smarter than her teachers. She always stood up for the underdog because she could beat up the bullies. She excelled at everything she tried, especially basketball. She was a very good basketball player. Most of all she had a family that loved and encouraged her. That is what was important. That is all she needed or wanted. Then in a blink of an eye, her family was gone. Left alone at only eleven years old she was lost. With no one to help her control all her gifts she made some bad decisions. Decisions that landed her in juvenile detention for three and a half years. Now at seventeen, Nikki is walking through the gates of the detention center. She is free to start a new life. She must now figure out how to deal with the pressure of being a teenager with a past, on her own, and in a new town. Unknown to her as she walks out of the gate, she will not be heading out alone. Four of her father's fraternity brothers will be there to help her along the way. The first person Nikki meets turns out to be the one that helps her the most. Kenny is the boss's son. Good looking, smart, and athletic, he has everything going for him. He falls in love with her as fast as she falls in love with him. Together they fight to make it through an intense senior year of high school. Can she overcome her past mistakes? Can she learn how to trust again? Can she learn to be part of a family again? Can she learn to love again? The odds are against her. Nikki knows with desire, determination, and a little luck she can change the odds.
