Gillian Chang starts her second term at posh Spencer Academy boarding school in San Francisco prepared to focus on her studies, her faith and her friends. She's prepared for everything --- except love!

She's falling hard for the brilliant Lucas Hayes, future physics PhD student at Stanford. The problem is, she never seems to be able to measure up and be the girlfriend he wants.

With her heart on the line, Gillian conceals more and more from her friends. When she's accused of selling exam answer sheets, Gillian will need the power of honesty to show what she's really made of.
