And we're back! But this time we're looking into the lives of the younger siblings: Alyssa Phoenix, Julianna and Jade Ramirez, and their best friend Nova Quinn. After a crazy summer, the girls are ready to begin their senior year. But, there's just one problem...the new kids. Meet Cole, Damien, Lennox, and Torrin Bishop, the sons of the newly elected mayor, Richard Bishop. 4 brothers with 4 completely different personalities. Cole is the bad boy. With a "fuckboy" personality, he promises that he can get any girl fall at his feet. After the lies that surrounded the arrest of her brother and Jonathon, Alyssa refuses to let herself trust easily. What happens when Cole makes a bet with one of his friends that he can get a certain Phoenix to fall in love with him and...take her virginity. Damien is the star athlete, he's always been the center of attention and loves it. His only problem, he doesn't do relationships. But, that's perfect for Jade because she's the exact same way. After her parent's divorce she swore she would never fall in love. The two of them quickly turn their relationship from just friends to friends with benefits. What will happen when one begins to develop feelings? Lennox is the leader. He's stubborn, cocky, and everything Nova hates. She's student body president, the leader of 12 different clubs, and fluent in 4 different languages. Lennox immediately begins to challenge Nova for her spot at the top of the class and tries to one-up her in every way possible. What will happen when both Lennox and Nova are offered to compete for an internship at one of the biggest law firms in the city? Torrin is the golden boy, popular and the life of the party. Julianna...is the complete opposite. She's shy, introverted, and would rather stay home to read rather than go out and socialize. When these two get paired for a project that requires them to open up, they soon begin to bring out things in each other that others closest to them couldn't.

"I wanted you Lily Rose. You were all I ever wanted. You were the girl I loved." Wanted, loved. Past tense, in the past. No more. He didn't love her anymore. It had hurt her. He had hurt her. Just like she had hurt him by denying her love for him. "I'm sorry, Daniel," she whispered as he began to wrap his arms around her. It gave her no comfort. No peace. Suddenly she realized, that all the good things that she had gone through, all the happiness and sunshine was false. False hope because in the end no matter how hard she tried, the fate in store for her sister wouldn't be stopped by the hope that maybe tomorrow would be a better day. Deep down she loved him. Whether he still loved her or not she loved him. Looking up at him with sad eyes she said, "I could never hate you." He offered a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Good," he offered, "because I don't think I can be your punching bag again." She smiled up at him before she wrapped her arms around him and they held each other for a long time. Lily Gilbert is small town girl from Idaho. She's bright, caring, and loyal to a fault.
