School goes a little too differently for Won Lee this year. THE Ms. Popular, the gorgeous, flawless person with a big mixed friend group that everyone wanted to be, secretly doesn't live up to everyone's expectations. On the inside, she is merely an empty shell who doesn't see a purpose in life.

All Won does is go with the flow and create a forced character for herself based on everyone's expectations. In her mind a question is constantly slipping in like a wisp of smoke, igniting into a flame that burns-

"What are we searching for, really?"

While desperately, subconsciously searching for something, anything, perhaps someone to fulfil her desire for reasons, Won pays attention to new things waltzing into her life: the "infamous" and "perfect" Mason Kim, the pure and kind swoon material Austin Cheng, and Mr. Takashiro, alluring to all. As Won unfolds the millions of paper-thin layers to them, will she finally find what she's looking for?

When Charlotte agrees to fake date bad boy Mason to make her best friend and secret crush, Ben, jealous, she thinks it will be a simple arrangement. The rules are clear and she's certain of her goal: make Ben fall in love with her. So why does it seem like the lines always blur when Mason is around? *** Charlotte Anderson has secretly been in love with her best friend, Ben Hathaway, since childhood, though he's never seen her as anything but the girl next door. After witnessing Ben kissing another girl at a party, a heartbroken Charlotte accidentally admits her crush to notorious bad boy Mason Reed... who also happens to be one of Ben's closest friends. But Mason isn't going to tell Charlotte's secret; instead, he suggests they fake a relationship to make Ben jealous. They create a set of strict rules for the arrangement: no kissing when Ben isn't around, no sex, and no falling in love. But as their fake relationship progresses, and Mason's walls break down, Charlotte finds herself questioning her true feelings for both boys, and wondering if some rules are meant to be broken-especially when it comes to love.

She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota.
