Kacie Jones, Soc by blood, and greaser by act, hates her life. Her mother killed herself when she was young, and her father ended up marrying her best friend's mother, ruining her relationship with Piper, her now step-sister. Piper is the Super Soc of the school, and out to ruin Kacie's life, because somehow, Kacie ruined hers. Kacie's popular. Kacie's smart. But Kacie's shy, and she does everything she can to stay away from her sister. In her junior year of high school, she does gymnastics and holds straight A's, other than in math, the one area she struggles. But just because she's active doesn't mean she has many friends. Until she's placed with Darry Curtis to be he math tutor. They've known each other forever, but this is when they really come close. When he becomes the best thing about her life, she takes the idea a little bit too far...

Madeline Craft. 19. College freshman. Ex-greaser, or so she thought.
When she gets a custody call that her two siblings were seemingly abandoned in their Tulsa home, there's no option: she has to go back. It wasn't ideal, but her little brothers, four-year-old twins Jack and Graham, they needed her more than she needed college. Besides, college would always be there if she could ever go back.
But on a cold day, back at her high school job working at The Dingo, she meets someone that makes anything poor become great.
