Samson and Domingo fall in love during the summer before their junior year of high school. But Samson is the star player of Weslaco Norths football team and Domingo is a French horn player for Weslaco Souths marching band. Once school starts, their new love is challenged by those who dont agree with their rival schools mixing, especially Domingos older brother, Pablo, a football player for South. As if that wasnt enough, Samsons Olympian-like athleticism is shrouded in mystery; the source of his strength is a secret he has vowed to keep his entire life. As Samson and Domingos love blossoms, Samson learns to trust Domingo more than he has ever trusted anyone before, and Domingo opens his heart once again after heartbreak. But will their love be Samsons downfall?
