Josie Saint-Martin, a budding photographer, has spent her entire life moving from city to city alongside her single mother.

However, everything changes after a disastrous summer party, where a poorly executed act of revenge lands Josie in significant trouble. She finds herself incarcerated alongside the last person she would ever want to share a mugshot with: Lucky Karras, the son of the boat mechanic across the street, and her former childhood best friend.
