Ava Collins is a high school junior who has mastered the art of makeup to conceal her insecurities and present a flawless image to the world. Behind her confident facade lies a girl struggling with self-doubt and a deep-seated fear of being judged for her true self.

When Ava begins her school year, she encounters two very different boys: Ethan Carter, a quiet and reserved student who seems unaffected by Ava's external beauty, and Lucas Hayes, a charismatic and popular figure with a knack for teasing her while showing genuine interest. As Ava navigates her complex emotions and the challenges of maintaining her perfect appearance, she finds herself entangled in a love triangle that mirrors her internal conflict.

As Ava's relationships with Ethan and Lucas evolve, she must confront the truth behind her mask and discover what it means to be truly seen and loved for who she is. *Beneath the Surface* explores themes of self-image, authenticity, and the impact of superficial judgments, all set against the backdrop of high school drama and romance.

Growing up in a small, close-knit town where everyone knows each other, Ethan has always felt the pressure to conform and meet everyone's expectations.

Caught between the harsh judgments of his peers and his own internal battles, Ethan finds himself questioning who he is and where he fits in.

However, even their loyalty can't shield him from the pain of navigating high school while wrestling with his true self.

In his final year of high school, Ethan must decide whether to let the waves of rumor and doubt pull him under or to rise above and be true to who he really is.
