Sam’s dream is to go to Princeton and that is where her dad wanted her to be as well. The only problem was that Fiona, did not want that to happen. Fiona received Sam’s acceptance letter and butchered it to say that she was not accepted. Sam starts online messaging with one of the most popular boys in school, Austin Aims. They fall for each other behind the computer screen but do not know who one another are. Once everyone finds out it is Sam who Austin is looking for everyone is in shock because she is a “no one” (Cinderella).
