Riley and Garrett are Bennett High's IT Couple. The way they saunter down the halls every day - before, in between, and after class - is perfect and down to a T. Riley's blonde hair is always wrapped around Garrett's muscular finger; their affection towards each other unable to be broken. Even the staff can't say no to their preferred seating arrangements and class schedule.  Everyone brands them as relationship goals - all except for Brendan and Carol. For different reasons.

Brendan doesn't buy their status as a couple... At. All. He is deemed as the high school's "Most Likely to Fail at Life" by the majority of the student population. But ever since freshman year when his tutoring sessions with Riley began, he couldn't get her out of his head. For a long while, he'd done nothing about it but ignore her in the halls and make her aggravated during their sessions. But the pressures of senior year gave him the push he needed to man-up and say what was on his mind.

Carol hates that everyone idolizes Garrett with Riley more than her own title as Queen Bee. But she hides her jealousy and crazed hatred well...

When an accident forces the IT couple apart, will Brendan and Carol team up to get what they believe they deserve? Or will Riley cure the burning that resides in her heart?

Jenna Matthews is her high school’s “It Girl.” She has the looks, the boyfriend, the status. Life couldn’t be more perfect. Who doesn’t want to be loved by everyone and be ultra popular, especially in high school? Everything is great, and she’s looking forward to Homecoming and Prom, knowing that becoming Queen of her school is as good as done. But when her boyfriend, Landon Craig breaks up with her in the most public of ways, Jenna watches as all of that vaporizes before her. Can she get back in with the “It Crowd,” or is she now doomed to be a ghost in her school’s halls? Is there more to life (and love) than being the most popular? Is there a diamond in the rough willing to show her the true meaning of love (and life)?
