In every stupid and cliché teen fiction story, there's always the blonde cheerleader that people think is a complete bitch and acts as the sinister antagonist of the story. Sorry to disappoint, but I'm that blonde cheerleader that people think is a complete bitch and acts as the sinister antagonist of the story. Is it my fault that I was born with this hair color or with the blue eyes? Is it my fault that I worked hard to be the leader of the cheer team? And how come there's always this goody-two-shoes who comes in and rains on my parade? Let's list off the criteria: Blonde? Obviously. Blue eyes? Like, as you say, "a reflection of the ocean" Cheerleader? Complete with the uniform. Bimbo? My grades beg to differ. A bitch? I'm not even going to deny it. Antagonist? Well, I'll let you be the judge of that.

"I want you to be a part of the Anti-Delinquent System." Mr Blythe paces backwards and forth in his office, his expression solemn. "We have five students in this school who have given us a bad reputation, and I want you to help us bring them down. I'm asking you, to catch them in their bad ways. I want you to expose them for their tricks: the ones they've got away with in the past. Only once these five students are removed can Lindale High become a place where education is an accessible opportunity for everyone." Erika Monroe is being recruited to bring down the mysterious Chase Thatcher. Her job? To catch him in the act of something bad, and give the Principal an excuse to expel him. Erika has never been one to turn down an opportunity which could get her a good word for a scholarship, but this time, she's unsure. What if, by trying to catch Chase out, she finds herself caught by surprise? Maybe, the newfound delinquent doesn't need to be tamed. Maybe, he just needs to be saved.
