Slowly Falling

Chloe uses work to hide from the world, but she can't escape her thoughts. Since the death of her track-star boyfriend, her panic attacks are sneaking up on her. A lot. And while others may think her odd behavior is because of his loss, the truth is she's always been just this side of "crazy." Until now, her compulsive daily rituals kept them at bay. At least in public.

When Derrick walks into her life, she's distracted enough to back away from the edge of her mental precipice. Convinced he's her safe haven, she falls blindly into a relationship. With him, she dreams of being like every other seventeen-year-old. It seems so easy, but it's not.
