Sixteen-year-old Tessa Johnson has never truly felt like the protagonist in her own life. While she adores romance novels, she rarely finds characters she identifies with. However, in her personal writing, Tessa shines as the leading lady, crafting heartfelt love stories that she shares exclusively with Caroline, her closest friend and most devoted reader.

Excited to showcase her stories at a prestigious art college's writing program, Tessa faces writer's block during her first workshop. Fortunately, Caroline suggests finding inspiration in a real-life love story. Armed with romance novel-inspired steps to a happily ever after, Tessa meets Nico, a brooding artist who embodies the perfect Prince Charming straight out of her tales.

However as Tessa checks every merchandise off Caroline’s record, she will get additional and additional away from herself. She dangers shedding every part she cares about—together with the stunning bond she develops with candy Sam, who lives throughout the road. She’s nicely on her option to having her personal real-life love story, however is it the one she needs, in any case?
