Freak.
Weirdo.
Loser.
Seventeen-year-old Autumn Willoughby has never had any friends, but her never-ending interests keep her intrigued about life. It's hard to fit in when you have no chance of being popular--not even a chance that the popular will even walk in your vicinity. When her mother announces that she'll be enrolling her into a public school, Autumn internally grieves and spends the last days of her summer trying to learn how to fit in. Turns out, she didn't study nearly hard enough.

Suddenly perfection isn't her only option. ***** Ella Volkov is a gifted music student, but she's depressed and starting to crack under the pressure of high school. Her overbearing father won't even let her choose what instrument she plays. Then she finds herself alone at a party with Ren, her best friend's crush. She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
