It's finals week for Maya, Ashely, Connor, and Brandon, for high school juniors. When the four of them have to team up for a history project, they aren't so excited. Ashely is straight- A student, who dedicates her life to academics and the Varsity tennis team. Connor is the "it boy" who is wealthy and wouldn't dare to be seen with anyone who isn't near his financial wealth. Maya is the popular fashionista who used to be friends with Ashely back in the beginning of high school, before the incident. Finally, Brandon is the meek boy who write songs on his guitar and secretly likes someone. All of them are opposites so working on a project won't be that easy, especially when the lights go out the day they work on it. However, instead of working on their project, they get to learn more about each other in this charming YA novel.
