My grades will be perfect, I'll be taking my school to the state championship, and I'm determined to leave my rebellious ways behind. Hell...

A forbidden fruit otherwise known as my childhood best friend Drew Taylor. And as I catch feelings for the school's resident bad boy, I wonder if I will be able to pull off my greatest feat yet... or will the perfect life I've been trying to make for myself come crashing down around me?Unable to resist the dark side of things, I'm praying I don't lose my freedom a second time, and that I'll finally succeed in this game called life. Wish me luck...
