Emery Glass enjoys her own company. It's the only one she ever really gets, what with her what some would call "overwhelming" personality. So when her mother takes a turn for the worse and is no longer deemed reliable, and her undesirable and unfaithful father is off galavanting with god knows who, she's shipped off to live with her estranged Grandfather in Hartford, Connecticut who seems to be a bit senile, she's totally lost the one ounce of faith in humanity that she still possessed. And while she's staying with her Grandfather, she's enrolled in a new highschool with a bit of a different way of doing things than she'd used to. While she's there, she meets a group that soon seems to accept her as their own, but with a warning of a darker group of boys that she should never associate herself with. Emery finds herself intrigued, and is eventually led to the head of the group of boys who seems to have an even bigger ego than herself, Alexander Cross. But are they friends, enemies, or is something more? Either way, Emery is soon thrust into a new world of drama, love, choices and heart break that she's never known before. Maybe she should have stuck to her own self-worship back in New Jersey.

Cole the Not So Stereotypical Jock Being the most popular guy that girls all want to be with and all guys want to be should make you feel on top of the world, right? Not always, especially if you have to keep the fact that you can barely afford food a secret at all costs. And then the new girl shows up with her amazing dance moves and intoxicatingly confusing logic, and he can't seem to get her out of his head. She isn't the favorite girl of the school, not to mention his friends, and she doesn't show any interest towards him, but he has to try. The girl with the mysterious ways has got him wrapped around her scarred little finger. Not Andy Being the girl with no friends is never easy- especially when you have major trust issues and problems that can only be discussed with a shrink. That's why instead of slowly letting people into her life, she chose to shut them out completely. It seems easier that way, which is until she moves to Bangor, Maine and catches the eye of Cole, the football quarterback and heart throb of the school. He makes her feel things that she didn't think we're capable, and he shows how to make a bad situation into something semi-tolerable. It gets her thinking that maybe cliche boys with secrets aren't such a bad thing. During their 17th year, Andy and Cole must face the problems of high school, social hierarchy, their pasts, relationships, trust, friendships, and even love. Both of them knowing that stories like this never happen to kids like them, but they're willing to try anyway.
