A friendship with the queen bee of her school leads her to another group of teenagers, especially Adam, the pretty boy with the golden smile and for the first time, she felt she could truly belong somewhere but then, all is not what it seems with the group of teenagers as some of them have even bigger demons and secrets, secrets that'd mar them forever.
