But when she meets Jaiden, her whole world turns upside-down.
16-year-old Jaiden Dacre is known as the antisocial loser of high school. By now, he's officially doomed. His grades are dropping from below average to below, well, everything. He's too shy to approach anyone else, and no one wants to befriend a scrawny, socially awkward teenager with braces and a face full of acne.
The last thing he expects is for the girl he's been crushing on since grade school to ask him for help.
The unlikely duo embark on a journey of self-discovery, hope, and realization that the only cure for Willow...is love.
