Wynter Nox is just trying to get through high school without too much drama. With his best friends River, Tamir and Corrie, the quartet do their best to get through whatever it is senior year will throw at them-- clubs tryouts, the SAT, and the football team being assholes. But there's one thing that might mess up everything Wynter's worked for-- the Baby Project. Paired up with Declan Whitehead (the boy who's managed to buy his way through life and his problems with a simple call from his father), Wynter must take care of a doll that eats, sleeps and cries like a real baby would while still making sure Declan does his part as well.
