Do you believe in signs? Well, Alice Charleston certainly does.
She has always been the center of her classmates' mockery. Like all nerds, she wears glasses, baggy clothes, and old pair of leather boots that look definitely out of style. She's an average girl, introvert, and not very smart. She's tired of all the name calling led by Garret, the school's football varsity. When she thought that there's no point of living a happy life, Wade Smith, a transferee, comes in the picture. He's pretty much good at everything. Musically-inclined, excellent in academics, and sporty. He's perfect. For the first time in Alice's life, she finally learns to love. And each time she asks for signs, fate seems to agree with her. And so becoming his wife becomes her ultimate dream.
But will Wade notice her and come to like her back?
Miles Cunningham is not the right guy to fall for. Isabella knows that. So when he decides to barge his way into her life, she does everything she can to keep him out...but part of her likes where things are heading. Will the consequences be too much for her to handle?
