This isn’t high school. This is a war zone. It should be just another year for me at Spring Hill High. It’s not. It’s the first of many years…without my brother. Fighting back memories of Brady should be the most difficult thing I have to face while walking the halls of SHH. Instead, those sad reminders become the least of my worries. My brother’s best friends make sure of that. They won’t let me heal in peace. In fact, the three star football players—the ones my brother knew all his life—are determined to make me do it their way, or live through hell in the process. What they don’t understand is, I lived through my brother’s death…that means I can live through anything. Bring it, hotshots. I’m waiting.
