Rainey Holloway doesn't believe in easy love.
She moves to Bayside halfway through senior year with a sketchbook, a '67 Chevy Impala, and enough walls around her heart to keep anyone out - especially Zack Morris.
Zack is everything she doesn't trust: charming, reckless, surrounded by girls, and hiding behind a smile that never seems real. She wants nothing to do with him. He can't stand that she doesn't fall for his act.
But somewhere between arguments, late nights, stolen glances, and the quiet moments no one else sees, Rainey starts to discover the boy behind the persona - and it terrifies her. Because falling for him means risking everything.
Through graduation, distance, summer heartbreak, jealousy, and a love that refuses to stay buried, they learn that sometimes the things that scare us most are the things we need the most.
Everyone knew Becca Hopper wanted out of Hawkins. Her social life consisted of a middle schooler she babysat, his friends she occasionally drove around, and that was it. She was simply the chief's daughter no one had ever truly gotten the chance to know.
But with gates into other worlds opening and Dustin Henderson dragging her into trouble, she has no choice but to get to know the people she'd spent so long ignoring.
And catching Steve Harrington's attention? That didn't matter to her in the slightest. Really.
