Laney Walker is a quick witted, athletic, southern tomboy who lets few get too close, using her sarcastic zingers to deflect.

But college puts a gap between Laney and Evan that neither of them were prepared for- old relationships are tested, new ones are formed and nothing will ever be the same.

EXCERPT
It didn’t take long to find Mr. Allen.
Turns out the Allen family had recently moved in right down the street. Dad
wanted to let the man know that he thought what his son had done was noble and
sure hoped Evan wasn’t in any trouble. Confirming he wasn’t, it’d only seemed
right to invite the boy fishing with us.
At least, that’s how Dad explains it to
me. It doesn’t stop me from pouting the whole ride to the pond and trying to
ignore the intruder in the back seat with me.
“Thanks for inviting me, Mr. Walker. I
love fishing.” Sure he does; what a butt
kisser.
“My pleasure, Evan, we’re happy to have
ya’ along. Aren’t we, Laney? “
“Of course, Daddy.” I smile sweetly
before continuing. “Say, Evan, you know
how to bait your own hook, right?” What?
I’m genuinely concerned. I don’t want to end up doing everything for the kid.
Evan just looks at me from the corner of
his eye, not answering.
“Dad, did you bring him a life jacket? We
wouldn’t want him to fall in and drown if he hooks a big one.”
Dad doesn’t answer me, either. They both
look uncomfortable; I’m not the least bit perturbed. There’s more where that came from, boys! I can do this all day and
it’s well-deserved, as far as I’m concerned. How dare Dad invite this boy into
our time together? My time with Dad is sacred. We don’t need company.
“Hey, Evan…” I drawl, kicking the
smartass act up a notch as we climb out of the truck and grab our gear, “don’t
get used to this. One rescue, one trip. Got it?”
Dad acts like he doesn’t hear me and
walks ahead to the water. He thinks his new little hero can hold his own with
me. We’ll see.
“Rescue, huh? That’s what you think that
was?”
So… Evan can answer.
“Whatever, you know what I mean. I don’t care what anyone thinks of
me. My dad and I are just fine without
them. I don’t need new friends any more than I needed saving. I can take care
of myself just fine.”
“Oh, I could see that, tiger. That’s not
why I did it.”
Tiger? Could he not remember my name? Typical
boy. “Why did you then?”
He thinks for a minute, kicking the dirt
with his toe, and then shrugs. “I’ll let you know as soon as I figure it out.”
I never heard what he came up with. Turns
out, we had plenty of other things to talk about.
