Michaela Kumar is always late. She may be a nerd, but she never seems to get anywhere on time, especially at school. When Michaela finds out that her tardies have been piling up to go on a record after a new policy was enforced, she is forced to do the community service project with none other than the basketball star Noah Cruise to wipe their tardies. Noah knows exactly how to annoy her and she knows how to annoy him. They become instant enemies. But there is a fine line between love and hate. Michaela's boring, lonely, awkward life becomes a whole lot more interesting and starts to feel a bit like a game. Will she win?
