Everly Winter hasn't had a day without responsibility in years. Between dealing with her newly divorced parents and watching out for a suicidal best friend, Everly never has time for herself. But then Jace Wasson comes along, self-contained and enigmatic. He doesn't give Everly the best first impression, but the two of them just can't seem to stay away from each other. Everly finds herself falling- falling in love with someone who she never expected to like the slightest bit.

Under a masked disguise, no one knows that the girl in the red dress is Rowan Andersen- a nerd who spends her time working at Sweet's Cafe and studying. Not even Camden Knightly recognizes Rowan when he unexpectedly falls for her at his parent's masquerade ball. Now, Camden is determined to find his mystery girl, and will not give up until he does so.
