Evie Roberts is your normal high school girl. She is witty, somewhat academically smart, and knows how to shut someone up with her sarcasm. After losing three years in a row, she finally wants to be the Student Body President this time. She will do anything to win the title.
Claude Jones is her rival and the Student Body President since three years. Driving the town in his Citroen, he barely cares about anything that happens around him. Anything, unless it involves Alice Walker, his long time crush and Evie's best friend. He will do anything to get her attention.
Two unlikely people who only know to compete with each other are brought together in a chaotic mess when Claude steps down the elections for Evie, and wants her to set him up with Alice, in return.
A deal is made and everything is sorted, until secrets are revealed, confessions are made, and suddenly everyone realizes life is not as easy as it seems.
And love? Well, it never comes at the right time, and when it does, it is always too late.
At least for Evie, Claude, and Alice.

A story of three teenagers discovering life, relationships, and their own sexual identities.
"Because, being a teenager has never been easy."
Evie was the wild child of the bunch. She was always everywhere and doing everything, all so she could pour it into her writing. Being a writer was the dream she held since she was a child, but to be the best, she needed to get into a good college.
However the local scholarships were not enough to cover the costs of attending her dream school. Evie was determined to find a way to pay for her education, but she was running out of options. That was until West came back.
West was a childhood friend, her family friend's son. They used to play together when they were kids, but as they grew older, they drifted apart and lost touch. It's been a couple of years since they had last seen each other, and when West randomly needed to stay at Evie's house for a few weeks, she wasn't sure what to expect.
They each needed a plan to get what they wanted, and they each had what the other needed. It seemed like a win-win situation for both of them. Or so they thought that is until a an old fling reappears that could jeopardizes their deal.
Will they be able to keep love out of this story?
