Amanda Jackson was a tough girl - back when she was still a kid. But upon growing up she realizes that one couldn't really say and do how they pleased without dire consequences, so she withdraws into her shell that she created right after middle school.
When an incident that occurs in her high school forces her to drop out, she finds the inspiration she needs to finally apply to the school of her dreams - a prestigious high school that seems to be for only the rich and the gifted.
She gets the scholarship and is subsequently drawn into the lives of well off students that can't help but show off their parents' wealth.
Upon entering the school she meets Adrian King, the son to her role model, Dr. King and immediately falls for him. Her relationship with Adrian is however compromised when she meets Jericho, a guy she met at the bookstore she frequents who also turns out to be her long lost childhood friend.
Jericho, like any other person, has a past. But his past seems to be way more unforgivable than most people's. He ends up liking Amanda, after all his efforts to not let history repeat itself, and teied his best to stay away from her.
Amanda is intrigued by the hostility between the two boys and, despite all attempt by Adrian to take her mind off their relationship by changing the topic each time she brings it up, she soon finds herself talking to Jericho and finds out that there is more to the story than what every one knows...
