Raised in a deeply religious home by her single mother, 18-year-old Grace has always been the perfect daughter. Engaged to a family friend since childhood, she promised to remain pure and honor her commitments. But when Grace heads off to college, everything changes.
On campus, she meets Ethan-charming, rebellious, and unlike anyone she's ever known. Against her better judgment and the promises she made to her mother, Grace falls deeply in love with him, ultimately giving him her virginity. For the first time, she feels free from the expectations that have weighed her down her entire life. But that freedom comes at a cost.
When her mother discovers Grace's relationship with Ethan, she's heartbroken, urging Grace to leave college and return home to the life she had carefully planned for her. But Grace refuses, defying her mother and choosing to embrace her independence, even at the expense of their relationship.
Just when Grace believes she has control over her life, she discovers the unthinkable-Ethan never truly loved her. He made a bet with his friends that he could seduce her, and everything they shared was nothing more than a cruel game.
