Emmaline 'Emma' Glenmorrie is your typical goody-two-shoes. A straight A student who has never been kissed or gone to a party, and likes it just like that. With her best friends Morgan and Zander by her side, high school seems a little more manageable. Alexander Gaskarth is the little badass of the school. Sneaking out, parties, pranks, sex, and he gets away with it all. Emma's world crashes down when her mother starts dating Alex's father, and then they move in.
