Gemma is a shy wall flower.  She starts her junior year of high school with a new look.  She has the support of her best friend Savannah, her sister Cayla, and her best friend Sahar, plus the lasting reputation of her older brothers to get her through this year.  She's not afraid of being bullied, but she is afraid of coming out of her shell.  She's never had a boyfriend, never been kissed, and never had any real friends other than Savannah who has been her best friend since preschool.

Xander is the new kid in the junior class.  They notice each other immediately.  They have an instant connection that neither of them can explain.   Yet they never seem to acknowledge or explore this connection. 

Jonnie is her long time crush.  They have been classmates for years, and he finally notices her.  Or has he always noticed her?  

Nathaniel is the jerk jock that never dates a girl, having a reputation as "one and done" kinda' guy.  Reputations can often be false, and built on rumors, but other times they are built on too much truth.  He sets his sights on Gemma and she begins to unravel the truth behind who he really is.

Who will be her first date, first kiss, and first boyfriend?  Will she continue coming out of her shell, or will it all be too much for her.  Will this wallflower bloom or wilt?

In which two ex-step-siblings reconnect after just about blowing up their family the first time around... Three years ago, Maddie fell hard for Jacob Isaacs, the smartest boy in her school. The only problem was this: Her dad had quite literally gotten engaged to his mother. The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom. She hasn't seen her family in ages and intends to keep things that way. Jacob, on the other hand, has worked hard to accomplish everything he's ever dreamed of. He's stayed close to home, done exceptionally well at school, and is adored by just about everyone who meets him. There's only one problem: There's a Maddie-shaped hole where his heart used to be. But no matter how hard he tries to reach out and find her, he can't. She won't let him. He let her down and gave up on them when she needed him most. And she's not ready to forgive and forget. But then Maddie's dad passes and she's forced to come home for his funeral. It should be a quick visit. She intends to make it one. But Jacob has other plans. He let his girl slip through his fingers once and he won't let that happen again. So now he has to convince her to give him one more chance. After all, they're not related to each other anymore.
