It's 1998 and Connor Harrington's dream girl falls into the arms of his best friend, Landon, after a high-stakes bet. Connor sits back week after week watching Landon neglect Olivia. If she were his girl, he'd treat her like the princess she was. To make things even more complicated, Olivia moves into his home to attend a performing arts high school with his sister. With Olivia right across the hall from his room, will he break bro code and risk his 12-year friendship with Landon when the opportunity presents itself? Olivia Walker simply wanted to enjoy a day out with her girls, but was instead pestered by a few rich boys who came to the "wrong side of town" as a joke. She was not prepared to fall head over heels for an arrogant red-head. Losing her virginity to Landon puts her on a crazy relationship roller coaster full of highs and lows. During their latest breakup, Olivia finds herself leaning on Landon's best friend Connor for support. Will Olivia get tired of the uncertainty of her relationship with Landon and instead choose stability with his best friend? Landon Sullivan had it all. A mansion, maids and a brand-new luxury car most 18-year-olds could only dream of. But there was one thing he didn't have...love.

Will the emotionally detached teen be able to overcome his issues and fight for the only person he's ever loved? *Young Hearts is the prequel to Love You Like I Do, LYLID should be read first.
