Nothing but Trouble

Two best friends. One vibrant Southern city. And a freshman year at Tulane University that will change everything.
For most people, going to college marks the exciting beginning of a life away from home. But for eighteen-year-old Bobbie Lamont, life takes a different path. Choosing to remain at home with her wealthy, emotionally distant New Orleans high society parents, Bobbie steps onto the sprawling campus of Tulane University with standard-issue freshman nerves and a heavily guarded, broken heart.

By her side is her unbreakable anchor: Billie Carver. Born in the blue-collar Tenth Ward, Billie is outgoing, fierce, and everything the quiet, book-loving Bobbie is not. Despite their contrasting worlds, their childhood bond has survived childhood cliques, personal tragedy, and secret heartaches.

But college introduces a new kind of complication: Andrew Dessman.

When Bobbie finds herself unexpectedly drawn to Andrew on her very first day of English class, she thinks she might finally be ready to move past her first love. There's just one catch-Billie met him first. As Andrew becomes Billie's boyfriend, Bobbie is forced into a complicated dance of hidden desires, diary confessions, and hazy weekend nights bar-hopping through the French Quarter.

Can a friendship forged over twelve years survive the ultimate test of hidden rivalry, growing pains, and the messy realities of young love?
