Quorra Forrester is a quiet but not so shy girl who tries to keep to herself as much as possible, though that seems to be more difficult than she expected when the school's resident popular jock Falcon Hartwell sets his sights on her; what he doesn't know is that she has a much darker past and maybe even present than she lets on. All Quorra wants is to get through the next year or so in high school without anyone finding out too much about her life before coming to a new town and school, whether or not she'll succeed at that is a whole other story; maybe she'll get more than she bargained for...in a good way? or a bad way?
