Seventeen year old Temperance Hollander lived a normal life with her father in Chicago. She had friends and was a great student who her teachers loved. The perfect daughter with the perfect life. But the summer of her eighteenth birthday, she got an unexpected phone call from her mother who she hasn't seen since she was in middle school summers ago. Just before school starts up again, she decides to move in with her mother in Oakridge. Unknown to her, she would meet some of her greatest friends, her greatest enemies, and a boy who turns her entire "perfect daughter" act around. Temperance considers herself done for. However that boy is always there when she makes a mess. How could romance even shimmy its way into Temperance's undecided plans? Could a romance even work without a strong base?

Lucas Vander is a mamas boy, born and raised in the small town life. Lucas has a reputation to uphold in Oakridge as the son of the chief of police, Grayson Vander. Messing up is not of his "to do" list, but when one girl shows up unannounced messes are the last thing he can avoid. This girl wont seem to go away and with his reputation at stake, he's not sure if Temperance Hollander is ever going to give him mercy.
