This novel is a story of two different loves from a young individual by the name of Daxton Gainnes. Daxton is a single man in his lower twenties living in a small town in Arizona called Show Low. Golf is the only thing he has in life and loves every second of it, until one day he is convinced to move to Phoenix Arizona to enroll at Arizona State University. Everything is moving nice and slow in his life until he meets Shirley Moreno, a Hispanic girl who is better at golf than he is. He slowly gives up his dreams to play golf collegiately and professionally in order to help Shirley with her own dreams. Just like all relationships, Daxton and Shirley's relationship has its difficulties. Shirley has an ex-boyfriend, Kevin, that does not believe he and Shirley ever separated, even though she has made it known to him countless times. Kevin does all he can to make Daxton's life miserable and succeeds several times. However, such as real life, a heart has a way of overlooking pain and misery for true love, even if it is just for one summer and Daxton pushes through the hard times just to be with Shirley. The majority of Fairways and Dreams takes place in Phoenix Arizona, where a tender relationship begins to blossom. Shirley and Daxton spend every day together to help Shirley practice for an upcoming two-day tournament, where the winner of the tournament receives her LPGA card for a year. Daxton is more than ecstatic when Shirley asks him to be her caddie for the tournament. Kevin has other ideas about where Daxton should be and makes it known to him.
