Flynn has always been a private person, his only confidants being his best friend, Leviticus, his mom, and the school counselor. When he was in sixth grade his mom moved them four cities over to start anew. That's where he met her, Quinn Becklyn, his puppy crush. He's never had the confidence to talk to her until now, a request for her to help him study turns into a sweet friendship. Now he only hopes it'll lead somewhere more.

Quinn has never been close with her parents, they've always been too distracted with work to notice her. So when she agrees to help the local golden boy, Flynn Edwards, study for his upcoming Social Studies test she wasn't ready for the backlash it would cause. She also never expected her childhood best friend Wren Hart to return from England just to see her.
