Living in a suffocating household dynamic, 17-year-old Lizzy Jones, finds herself constantly overlooked by her parents who lavish attention on her younger sister, Jamie - their self-proclaimed golden child. Left to navigate life's challenges alone, Lizzy begins to question her place in the world. While her peers are out partying, dating, and conforming to societal expectations, Lizzy feels trapped in a never-ending cycle of trying to fit in. In her monotonous routine, she yearns for something more, something authentic that goes beyond the surface. Enter Parker Watts, the enigmatic rebel of their school. Intrigued by his mysterious aura, Lizzy is drawn to him, sensing that he holds the key to breaking free from her stifling existence. As their paths intertwine, Lizzy discovers a side of herself she never knew existed - a longing for adventure, a desire to challenge the norm, and an appetite for genuine connections. With Parker as her guide, Lizzy learns to embrace her individuality, pushing against the expectations imposed upon her. While her friends conform to societal molds, Lizzy begins to understand the value of forging her own unique path. Caught between the pressures of conforming and the call of her authentic self, Lizzy grapples with her choices throughout her junior year. The more time she spends with Parker, the deeper their connection grows, and the more they both realize that they are searching for something profound amidst the superficiality of teenage life.

Alex Harper loves Dylan West ever since she can remember. Too bad he never noticed her. Not even with the countless dinners at each other's houses and vacations spent together, thanks to their parents' long friendship. Well, that's about to change! Now that she's a Senior, Alex decided it was time for a makeover. She looks different and feels more confident. Sometimes at least... Considering Dylan is going to college close to home, hopefully, he will finally see her as more than the girl he grew up with. A girl can dream, right? When summer is over and Dylan lays eyes on her new version, that dream might just come true. That is if Bennett West doesn't get in the way. Meet Dylan, your typical jock, popular, adored by many and Keithton High School's golden boy. No wonder why Alex loves him so much, just like almost every other girl in school. Now, Bennett couldn't be more opposite from his brother. He sure has the good looks too, but that's all they have in common. He's obsessed with science, doesn't like sports or parties, straight A student and adored by his teachers. People call him weirdo to say the least. In a whirlwind of events and deep conversations, Alex finds herself getting closer to Bennett and a renewed friendship starts to surface, just to remind her that maybe he's not so weird as people say. Still quiet, but not weird. When Dylan starts paying attention to Alex, Bennett is worried that she might get her heart broken as he know his brother's ways with girls. It's not because they are closer now that he has the right to judge her relationship with his brother. Why on earth does he care anyway? It can only be envy of his brother for all the attention he gets, right? It's not her fault Bennett doesn't have Dylan's charisma. Maybe Alex will figure it his reasons when it's too late. Join Alex on her road to dreams coming true, just to realize that maybe she has been dreaming about the wrong person all along.
