Natalie Porter and Jackson Genrette come from different worlds. Natalie might be a Pogue hustling to support her family, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know how to have a good time. Right now, she's too busy surviving and living. Jackson has never had to worry about survival. As the golden boy of a powerful Kildare family, he's spent his life chasing adrenaline and pushing limits, knowing his last name will always bail him out. Four years ago, their paths crossed in the worst way-Natalie lost a job she couldn't afford to lose, and she's sure Jackson is the reason why. Now, he's back, fresh off a reckless mistake that should've cost him everything. Instead, thanks to his family's money, all he's facing is community service. And somehow, that community service brings him right back to Natalie. They've never gotten along. They don't plan to start now. But when you spend enough time with someone you hate, sometimes you realize hate isn't the only thing burning between you.

Nine years after the Pogues' high school graduation, Charlotte has built the life she always dreamed of - a respected Public Defender in Kildare, just like her father. She has purpose, stability, and a career she's proud of. But when a new case lands on her desk, everything shifts. The defendant is JJ Maybank - the boy who once meant everything to her, and the one she never truly let go. Caught between the professional and the personal, Charlotte is forced to confront the past she thought she'd buried. As she fights to defend JJ in the courtroom, she's also fighting the unresolved feelings between them - and the weight of how things ended years ago. Told across two timelines - the present day and their final year of high school - Back to You is a story of first love, second chances, and the ties that never really break.
