Ayla is easily the best female athlete at her school--particularly at softball--but she can't cook to save her life. Graham is hopeless at any sport involving hand-eye coordination, but he can whip up just about anything in the kitchen. Ayla is desperate to learn how to cook, meanwhile Graham couldn't care less about whether or not he participates in a sport. So with some insistent convincing on Ayla's end, the unlikely duo decide to pair up to share their abilities with one another, although they soon come to realize that trying to teach your passion to someone who just doesn't get it is never an easy task.

A shy high school senior jock and a closed-off girl battling an immune disorder fake a relationship to win a social media contest. Being shy isn't easy, especially when you're the new kid at school. Scotts Valley's football program is subpar compared to my last school's team, but the starters underestimate my all-conference skills. Girls eye me like fresh meat. Mom's cooking has the fire department on speed dial, and her game cheering makes me want to crawl under the bleachers. In the middle of all this stress, I'm still so tongue-tied that I can't talk to anyone. Scotts Valley High's 'Golden Couple' competition-which I want no part of-grates my nerves. I want to play football and baseball, then continue whatever gets me a college scholarship. Only Paige treats me as a normal person. People at school say she's quiet and closed-off, but she's nice to me. She's hiding her awesome self under baggy clothes and the brightest, pinkest hair I've ever seen. I don't understand why she's picked on, and I don't like it. Her medical bills are mounting, so I'm doing something about it. Paige and I pretend to date to remove ourselves from the rumor mill and win the Golden Couple's cash prize. What I don't expect is to catch feelings for my 'first trust,' the first friend I can open up to and be myself around...my girl Paige.
