Lessons in Gravity — Kristen Kehoe

The higher the climb, the bigger the fall… This is something Cameron Carson learned early on in life. It's not enough to get to the top -- people expect you to stay there. And when you don't, the fall back to Earth is more than painful -- it's devastating. Gunner Thornton took his first fall at fourteen when he locked eyes with Cameron in Spanish class. She was confident, and beautiful, and everything he'd ever dreamed of. Now, four years later when Gunner looks at CC, he sees beyond the girl on the ground in her cheer uniform and mini-skirts, to the girl he fell for when he was fourteen -- the girl who pointed her body to the sky and flew, ignoring the rules of gravity that bound the rest of them. It's their senior year, and Gunner only has one more chance to convince CC that invincible girl still exists. And he's all in. A challenge is thrown: he'll help her pass her classes and graduate, but she has to train to jump again. With him. CC agrees, ready to do as little possible. But something about Gunner's unending challenge -- and belief -- that she can be better, be more -- makes CC want to fly…even as she's falling.
