Theo has always coasted through high school on charm, looks, and a string of meaningless flings - never one to get serious about anything, especially love. When his tight-knit crew dares him to make Laura, the quiet virgin, bookish girl who keeps to herself and battles self-image issues, fall for him before prom and take her v-card in the process, Theo agrees, seeing it as easy money and an ego boost.
But Laura isn't like the others. She's sharp, fiercely independent, and disarmingly sincere. As Theo chips away at her defences, he begins to question his own. What starts as a heartless game slowly transforms into something real.
When Laura uncovers the truth behind the bet, she's shattered - not just by the betrayal, but by how deeply she let him in. Now, Theo must confront who he really is and what he's willing to risk to win back the girl he never meant to fall for.
