She expected to start
Harkness College as a varsity ice hockey player. But a serious accident means
that Corey Callahan will start school in a wheelchair instead.
Across the hall, in the
other handicapped-accessible dorm room, lives the too-delicious-to-be real Adam
Hartley, another would-be hockey star with his leg broken in two places. He’s
way out of Corey’s league.
Also, he’s taken.
Nevertheless, an unlikely
alliance blooms between Corey and Hartley in the “gimp ghetto” of McHerrin Hall.
Over tequila, perilously balanced dining hall trays, and video games, the two
cope with disappointments that nobody else can quite understand.
They’re just friends, of
course, until one night when things fall apart. Or fall together. All Corey
knows is that she’s falling. Hard.
But will Hartley set
aside his trophy girl to love someone as broken as Corey? If he won’t, she will
need to find the courage to make a life for herself at Harkness — one which does
not revolve around the sport she can no longer play, or the brown-eyed boy who’s
afraid to love her back.
Warm, funny, and often heartbreaking, The Year We Fell Down is New Adult contemporary romance. Contains: hot hockey players, too many pairs of crutches, gallows humor, Princess Bride references, and a slightly outrageous vibrator scene. (Sexual situations make the book suitable for ages 18+.)
The expected publication
date is Monday, March 17th,
2014, on all of your favorite e-book websites.
Sarina Bowen writes contemporary
