Baron is a teen with a huge talent for computers--who occasionally indulges in hacking.

When the girl of his dreams starts showing an interest in him, Baron falls fast and hard. Keyanna sees their dates as more casual than the love-struck Baron feels, but everything seems to be going well. After he finds out she went on a date with someone else, Baron feels betrayed and, against his better judgment, hacks into her school and social media accounts to get her in trouble.

When the serious nature of what he's done becomes apparent, he realizes regret will never be enough. With Keyanna about to be suspended thanks to his hack, Baron races against the clock to fix his mess and prove he can be a better person.
