Valentina è tornata a scuola dopo la delusione del suo amore con Marco e vive le giornate chiusa in sé stessa, come se nulla potesse toccare il suo cuore. Ma all'improvviso arriva Mirko, un nuovo compagno di classe, e tutto sembra cambiare. Mirko è alto, moro e irresistibile. Da subito Valentina si sente attratta da lui, dal desiderio di perdersi nei suoi occhi e rivivere quelle splendide emozioni che sembravano assopite, e Mirko a sua volta cede al fascino di Vale.

È finita la scuola, le vacanze sono ormai vicine e per Valentina, Vale per gli amici, tutto va per il verso giusto: lei e Marco si amano alla follia e passano intere giornate a baciarsi e a coccolarsi in riva al mare. Non solo: a breve arriverà anche una fantastica sorellina di nome Giulia. Cosa può desiderare di più dalla vita? Poi arriva l'invito di Marta a trascorrere un'avventura mozzafiato da sole in campeggio. E così tra l'euforia, le risate, le prime notti sul materassino, gli incontri ravvicinati con i millepiedi, le incursioni notturne in spiaggia.

Tessa, diciassette anni, ha atteso a lungo il ragazzo perfetto, il momento perfetto, il bacio perfetto. Pensava di avere ancora molto tempo davanti a sé, prima di scoprire che a causa di un difetto cardiaco le restano poche settimane di vita. Stordita, arrabbiata, disperata, aspetta di morire chiusa nella sua stanza. È un'attesa amara, la sua, perché sa di non aver vissuto a pieno. Pensa a sé stessa come a una "ragazza soprammobile", che morirà "vergine e senza patente". Fino a quando non incontra Oskar e tutto sembra di nuovo possibile.

Marta e Vale, due amiche per la pelle, sono legatissime tra loro ma diverse nel carattere: una sfacciata e disinvolta, l'altra timida e chiusa. Con l'aiuto di Giò e Sara, compagne di scuola, vogliono diventare irresistibili e riuscire a conquistare i ragazzi più grandi. Provano di tutto: dalle maschere per il viso ai tentativi di allungarsi i capelli, dal piercing al naso all'acquisto di un reggiseno che le faccia apparire più provocanti. Riusciranno a far cadere ai loro piedi i più fighi della scuola? Luca e Ale sono veramente irraggiungibili?
