Mary-Kate "MK" Rowe is a straight-A student. Everyone expects her to do well. But when the principal asks her to tutor Jordan Gates, the bad boy of the school who everyone hates and is failing his subjects, it's not something she really wants. But if it's for extra credit for college, then why not?

At first there are conflicts between them where Jordan doesn't want to take anything seriously. Soon she discovers the truth behind Jordan's bad boy behaviours that leads him to want to take his own life. She realises she has to do more than just tutor him, helping him to get back on his feet. It soon becomes serious between them when MK starts to grow feelings for him. She knows she can't, not when she has a boyfriend.

But what will she do when her own mental health takes a turn on her after an incident, putting a toll on her relationships with her best friend, her boyfriend and her parents, as well as being bullied for wanting to help and be with Jordan? Can Jordan and MK find a way to be together?

Or was falling for Jordan Gates a mistake?
