A year has passed since Fallon's newest friend Thalia first rolled into town, and now it seems everybody is splitting up to head off to college. Or, to better describe it, splitting up from her. Thalia and Isaac are making a home in Seattle while Zoe finishes high school and Nate heads for the east coast. So far starting college has Fallon feeling completely and utterly alone. Until she finds out Oliver has decided to join her at UCLA unexpectedly after abruptly backing out of a football scholarship with no explanation. When the pair end up as roommates, everything shifts, releasing a tidal wave of stolen moments and unearthed secrets. Fallon is learning how to go for what she wants and Oliver is realizing he can't sit back and let the best thing that's ever happened to him slip through his fingers. But when Fallon faces something horrible and Oliver fails to come to the rescue, their future begins to look bleak. Fallon thought she'd have to teach him how to love, but she's quickly realizing Oliver knows more than she thought, and he's in it for the long haul. Now it's his turn to teach her to love herself again.
