Plot according to the Book:  Perfect, picturesque Orchard Hill.  It was the last thing Ally Ryan saw in the rearview mirror as her mother drove them out of town and away from the same of the scandal her father caused when his hedge fund went south and practically bankrupted all their friends--friends that liked having trust funds and new cars, and that didn't like constant reminders that they had been swindled.  So it was adios, Orchard Hill.  Thanks for nothing.
Now, two years later, Ally's mother has landed a job back at the site of their downfall.  So instead of Ally's new low-key, happy life, it'll be back into the snake pit with the likes of Shannen Moore and Hammond Ross.
But there's Jake Graydon.  Handsome, wealthy, bored Jake Graydon.  He moved to town after Ally left and knows nothing of her scandal, but does know that he lies her.  And she likes him.  So off into the sunset they can go, right?  Too bad Jake's friends have a problem with his new crush since it would make Ally happy.  And if anyone deserves to be unhappy, it's Ally Ryan.
Ally was hoping to have left all the drama in the past, but some things just can't be forgotten.  Isn't there more to life than money?
