Bailey Davis is your ordinary teenage girl entering the world of adulthood.
Spending most of her life as an average young girl, overlooked by hot boys and ignored by the bitchy popular girls; she was easily lost in the sea of Crestview High students with her decent grades and average social life.
However, after a small summer makeover, all that begins to change. Senior year had finally come and things were a lot different, this was her last chance to leave her mark. However, one thing Bailey hadn't considered was the amount of trouble and drama being 'well known' in high school could bring.
High school life comes with it's own whole world of drama, and all of that enough to handle without your mother slowly dying of cancer. It's a story of dating, partying, friendships and romance.
But when a new boy joins Crestview High, will he change Bailey's life for the better? Or send her spiralling into a life of partying and carelessness?
It's the classic clichè of secrets, rumours, and more. Is this what Bailey was dreaming of her whole life? Or is it becoming more of a nightmare?
