Lauren Jauregui has always been more comfortable with notebooks than with people. At Carrollton High in Miami, she's the quiet girl in the corner, scribbling metaphors between algebra problems, invisible to the world of pep rallies and popularity contests.
Camila Cabello, on the other hand, is the world of pep rallies and popularity contests: magnetic, adored, and always humming a melody she can't quite put into words. When she stumbles across Lauren's poetry, she sees not just ink on paper, but the missing piece of her dream to write songs that actually mean something.
Against the backdrop of lockers, late-night phone calls, and the messy collision of two very different worlds, Lauren and Camila strike a deal: one will teach the other how to write, and the other will teach the first how to live a little louder. But when lessons turn into late-night confessions and friendship teeters on the edge of something more, both girls must decide how much of themselves they're willing to risk on a first draft of love.
Camila started YouTube as an escape from the loneliness she feels as she grows apart from her childhood best friend, Lauren. She never expects it to become a career, to be financially stable at nineteen, and to run into said ex best friend at a grocery store in LA after not seeing her for four years.
