At Lakeview High, Skylar Moore prefers daydreams to spotlights. She believes in quiet romance, gallant gestures, and love stories that unfold slowly, the kind she reads about in books where every touch means something. Real life, however, is messier, louder, and far less poetic.

Theo Vance is everything Skylar tries not to notice. A top student, a gifted athlete, and the boy everyone wants, he seems untouchable, wrapped in confidence and rumors. Yet behind the sharp jawline and piercing blue eyes is someone unexpectedly patient, kind, and drawn to the same kind of old-fashioned romance Skylar thought only existed on paper.

When a failed math test forces their worlds to collide, study sessions turn into conversations, conversations into shared secrets, and guarded moments into something fragile and real. Between crowded hallways, late afternoons in the library, and books traded like quiet promises, Skylar begins to see Theo for who he truly is. And Theo starts to look at Skylar like she's something rare.

But high school is full of complications. Exes who refuse to let go, friendships that blur into jealousy, and the fear of trusting someone when your heart has already learned caution.

Tender, emotional, and quietly intense, this is a story about first love, emotional safety, and finding a modern-day knight when you least expect one.
