Tabitha went off the rails young and never quite made it back. Now she's wasting her twenties in the most enjoyable way possible - spending her lawyer father's money and living the high-life among the glittering young things of L.A. But on her 24th birthday, she discovers that this life is about to come to an abrupt end. Her father's had enough and gives her an ultimatum: grad' college by the time she's 24, or she's disinherited.

Without credit cards, Tabitha finds herself enrolled at Adirondacks U, set in the wild mountains of the States' northern reaches. But Tabby still manages to discover temptation in the shape of Jake, a handsome senior, a rugged logger she meets in the woods and Mark, a professor.
