Dahlia is a girl, she likes boys, boys like her. It is always the same, talk, laugh, kiss, end, repeat. She is tired of this toxic cycle, she is lonely, she wants something more but living in this city and with her friends, she does not know what. Is it her housemate, Jake, who sleeps with almost every girl he meets? Is it her childhood friend, Ezra, who is completely obtuse to her affections? Maybe she doesn't need anyone, maybe she should be focussing on solely herself. She is struggling with becoming an adult, just as we all do, sooner or later.
Emma and Vivian spend their summer at a new camp to help out a friend, only to discover that it's a dating camp and they both have to pretend to be single!
*****
Emma and Vivian, having spent their first year of college living together, agree to spend their summer at Gwen Black's latest camp. Unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding (and Gwen's aggressive advertising), the entire camp is using Emma as a mascot because she's "single". Emma and Vivian decide to let the situation play out to help Gwen, finding a new thrill in keeping their love secret. Soon, though, things get out of hand as they start making each other jealous, and someone online is working to destroy their relationship (and the entire camp)! Can Emma save the camp, her reputation, and the only relationship that's ever mattered to her?
