TV writer Ellie Jenkins worked her butt off to put her nerdy, outcast teen years behind her. So there's a certain delicious irony in that she works for a hit show about popular high school kids when she was So. Not. Cool. And now she's been offered the promotion of a lifetime--if she attends her reunion. But Ellie's memory of High School Hell isn't nearly as traumatic as the reality . . .

No one at the reunion is what Ellie expected. Not her ex-best friend, who still has the ability to see right through Ellie. And not her secret crush, who has only gotten hotter, sexier, and way more complicated. The only way she's going to survive this whole weird ordeal is by fixing her bad high school karma, kissing the boy who got away, and getting the hell out of Ohio for good. But Ellie's discovering that in real life, she can't just rewrite the script.
