Isabella Reed was the 'perfect it girl' of her highschool. She's smart, pretty and kind- a gorgeous woman in STEM, the type of girl that can never seem to do anything wrong. Among other things, she has a fiery soul and an unwavering desire to fulfill her goals in life, specifically in her education and career. Growing up, she only had eyes on the prize- people's opinions of her. She never really cared about romance. For her, boys and relationships were a waste of her time. She never entertained anyone and was known to be a major heartbreaker and your typical NBSB study-first good girl. And for 16 years of her life, everything went according to her plans and ideals... until she finally spoke to Egan Amadeo, her nonchalant HUMSS neighbor whom she had always been scared of. "They liked each other and everyone knew except them."

Amanda Kleine Rubio is the girl who's liked but never pursued. Her whole life all she wanted was to prove herself worthy of success. Growing up in a not-so-fortunate family with an absent father and an ignorant mother, she had a hard time seeking for a shoulder to lean on. She grew up as an independent woman who could only see her goals and nothing else, seizing every opportunity that would come her way. And so when she was offered to study at the prestigious Forbes University majoring in architecture for free, she didn't think twice. Never mind Manolo whom only showed up now to father her and never mind her ex-boyfriend who cheated on her. All she wanted was to have a successful and flourishing career. But her life suddenly took a wrong turn when Chase Buencamino, a STEM senior high school student and a member of a famous band, laid his eyes on her. Worse, why must he be her ex-boyfriend's younger brother?
