"Never in a million years would I think that you, out of all people, are self-conscious."
Being popular has never mattered to Lydia Clark. She has always done her own thing, and never really cared about what other people say. Keeping a low profile, and at the same time being confident in her own skin has helped her with the fact that she was, well, not exactly an outcast, but just slightly different than the average teenager. And society norms were something she definitely hated.
So what happens when the cliché badboy suddenly shows up at her school? And what will Lydia do when the attention is suddenly turned to her?
