Meet Noah Johnathan Rivers
The perfect definition of a popular, dreamy and suprisingly social awkward guy. You see, Noah is popular but he isn't as well. Don't worry about, I wouldn't want to confuse you.
Anyway,
Meet, me!!!, Kacy Adaline Matthews
The girl who is loved by all. 'The' Queen Bee of Riverdale High. Well, the second sentence might be a lie, cuz i'm loved buy all but Noah, the sight of me makes hin want to puke, and it really bothers me.
My friends just made fun of me at our sleepover last week just because of it. Then, we made a bet. "If I, Kacy Adaline Matthews, can get Noah Johnathan Rivers to fall for me and have him rapped around my finger by the end of senior year then I will have unlimited favors from them for the rest of my life but, if i fail to do so then I loose my Queen Bee title and give it to whomever I choose that is within my posse."
And if you're wondering, yes this bet didn't end so well for one of us. Wanna find out who won, wanna know if for once in so many years, something good came out of a high school bet, then keep reading.
Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option.

If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
