Gemma is a shy wall flower. She starts her junior year of high school with a new look. She has the support of her best friend Savannah, her sister Cayla, and her best friend Sahar, plus the lasting reputation of her older brothers to get her through this year. She's not afraid of being bullied, but she is afraid of coming out of her shell. She's never had a boyfriend, never been kissed, and never had any real friends other than Savannah who has been her best friend since preschool.
Xander is the new kid in the junior class. They notice each other immediately. They have an instant connection that neither of them can explain. Yet they never seem to acknowledge or explore this connection.
Jonnie is her long time crush. They have been classmates for years, and he finally notices her. Or has he always noticed her?
Nathaniel is the jerk jock that never dates a girl, having a reputation as "one and done" kinda' guy. Reputations can often be false, and built on rumors, but other times they are built on too much truth. He sets his sights on Gemma and she begins to unravel the truth behind who he really is.
Who will be her first date, first kiss, and first boyfriend? Will she continue coming out of her shell, or will it all be too much for her. Will this wallflower bloom or wilt?
