Grace Jacobs is a nobody. She spends her free time stored away in the school library buried behind a book. However, after she sees her brother being ruthlessly bullied by some jocks, she snaps and decides to take matters into her own hands. Only, things don't go as planned; overnight, Grace becomes a local legend and somehow, she's forced to repeat her actions. Not to forget the fact that everybody thinks she's a dude. And thus, the infamous Hood is born: a real life hero hidden behind a mask and a black hoodie. Add in a suspicious, but swoon worthy bad boy, a best friend who has developed the hots for Hood plus your typical high school drama and you have a story about the antics of Nerds and Heroes.
