"Sometimes I wish my mind had a "clear history" button.
With a simple click, I could rewatch any movie like it was the first time. I could delete every lyric of that annoying song that's been stuck in my head for days. And I could erase every last memory of Ryan Thomas from my life."

Emilia Parker's life is turned upside down when she suddenly finds herself single and homeless. With nowhere else to go, she takes refuge at her parent's home only to be welcomed by an unexpected visitor from her past.

With the help of Holden Kennedy, Emilia rediscovers who she is and learns to embrace the uncertainty in life.

Now, Cassie and Katie, with a history of old feelings for each other, must team up and pretend to date to make Cassie's ex as miserable as her, and to convince an otherwise skeptical Bella that Katie doesn't like her; but somewhere in that process?
