    Summary

    Tobin and Kelley have been together for two years. Actually for the last five as consistent hookups, but these past two years, they've been exclusive. Tobin is struggling with Kelley right now, she's worried something is going on with her. Their relationship begins to unravel and Kelley steps over the line, forcing Tobin to act.

    Just when it seems things between the two are getting better, Kelley does the unspeakable, sending Tobin into a tailspin.

    Also, Tobin has been exploring her interest in art and is taking a class at the U of Portland. She's struggling with the concept of pursuing painting as her next career after she's done with soccer. By chance, Tobin meets Alex Morgan, an artist in Portland and the two become friends, in fact Alex becomes Tobin's first friend who's not a soccer player in the city.

    Tobin faces the reality of her relationship with Kelley, her growing friendship and possibly more with Alex, all while she tries to keep her sanity intact after she suffers a horrible experience while preparing for the 2016 Olympics.

    Note-the rape/non-con tag is for something that happens during consensual sex-it's not gruesomely descriptive yet vital to the plot.

    Summary

    Tobin's hurting. Christen's always there.

    *

    “It’s okay,” Christen soothes, moving her hand to come up and tangle in the base of Tobin’s hair. “We don’t have to do this now.”

    “But I want to,” Tobin says, jaw setting even as her eyes fill with glittering tears. “I want to do this now.”
