Set in a boarding school for the gifted, Lizzy Demarchelier and Castiel Speer are assigned to make a compilation report about the word 'young'.
Lizzy, seventeen and ranked number two in the school, is studious, uptight and had never done anything reckless. She's never found the need to, or the want, and is contented with graduating and going to uni with a clean record. Castiel, also seventeen and ranked number one in the school, never follows the rules and does what he likes while still being on top.
With Castiel as her guide in the wild side, Lizzy keeps him grounded. Together, they might just discover that the truth about being young is more than wasting your life away on cigarettes and that the prospect of love is just beside them, waiting for a nudge to happen.

I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life.
