Maggie has a plan: start her own company, dominate the business world, and never lose focus. No distractions. No drama. No time for high school nonsense.
Until one night, during a late-night run, she finds Maxine Bradfort, the schools most popular, crying alone on the street - mascara running, heels in her hands, and no explanation.
It's the kind of encounter that should've meant nothing, but instead ended up changing everything.
Maxine keeps showing up - in Maggie's thoughts, in moments she can't explain and in feelings she's not ready to face.
What happens when the girl who's never been distracted, gets pulled into the one thing she never planned for?
