"Seriously Paige? I am sick of all this! I don't know how fix anything and we're fighting a losing battle. You need to make your final decision. It's either me or him."

Of course Paige Walker was happy that her best friend had found love, how could she not be? Though she wishes that her friend still had some time to hang out with her, she is glad she had the opportunity to spend her summer with Scott Harper, her crush of the last two years and local heart-throb. Her bliss does not last long however, as the return to school brings with it several figures from Scott's past who are threatening to tear everything she worked for down unless their "relationship" ends. Is it really worth fighting for a relationship like theirs or is it better to just let go?

Best friends, Izzy and Em, have been star pupils at their all girls boarding school Watford High on Sydney's North Shore for years. Since joining classes with boys from their brother school, they're discovering new ways to distract themselves from their school work. The girls' friendship is put to the test when Em develops her first serious crush on a boy - the gorgeous and notorious, Dominic. Em stops at nothing to capture Dom's attention and when finally she wins his affections, she won't shut up about it. Being the third wheel is super annoying but Izzy has bigger problems to worry about than the newest 'hot couple' at Watford. Back home, Izzy's Mum is battling cancer, throwing new perspective on everything in her life. Complicating things, when Em goes to Japan over the summer, Izzy discovers feelings for her best friend's boyfriend that are as troublesome as they are undeniable. The fallout is epic.

''So, do you wanna go back to my place, eat some pizza, watch a Disney movie and maybe fall hopelessly in love?'' I laugh and nod. Blake's whole face lights up and he leans in brushing a strand of hair away from my eyes before his lips crashed down on mine and we were kissing.

The two are forced to attend the Wanderlust music festival together and after they get over the initial dislike for one another, will attraction form? And when they return home to their very different lives, can they find the time for love? ••• I followed Parker down the hall and he unlocked our door, holding it open for me. As soon as the click of the door closed, he cornered me against it, his hands on either side of my head. I held in a breath because of his proximity. "I've been wanting to kiss you since the day I met you," he voiced honestly and nudged his nose against my own. "You taste so good, Paige, you don't even know."
