"Seventeen-year-old Reece Alonzo is a Berkeley Heir. This is a secret she must keep at all costs by not getting into trouble—a promise she made with her parents. So far, she has kept her word, and her remarkable track record in Berkeley-Reagan Integrated School is a testament to that. Just when she thinks Senior High will be a walk in the park, the co-ed basketball team loses a player at the start of the school year. As Team Captain, she is tasked to look for a substitute within a month. Fortunately, her best friends refer a newcomer, Jacob Isulong, also a 12th grader, who is more than fit to complete the roster. But Reece feels threatened by Jacob’s skills and charms, which pushes her to break her promise. Caught between family issues and her one-sided rivalry against Jacob, Reece experiences firsthand what it means to be a Berkeley as she faces the consequences of the mess she made."
