Alexandra Clarke is the product of affluence and status.
She grew up in the best neighborhood, drives the best car, and even got into the best college. She knows nothing out of good grades, Saint Laurent, and unlimited black cards. Alexandra is capable of giving off the perfect facade, being the perfect daughter and dutiful student that she's supposed to be while harboring her own secret.
Her parents believe that she's straight-laced, but on the weekends she's drinking, smoking, and getting herself into more trouble than most would think. It's at one of these parties that she meets a local musician named Nate Maloley, and it's an instant attraction. Alexandra isn't looking for love, and Nate isn't looking for something serious, but they are enough of each other's distractions that they may be blind to what's coming next.
