Five weeks after Bridgette returns home from ''Total Drama Island'', she discovers that she's pregnant after she and Geoff had a quick night of intercourse the day before everyone went back home. Bridgette is naturally horrified, since not only is she still just 16 years old, but Geoff lives three hours away from home. And while she's lucky that Courtney happens to live in her hometown and Trent has just moved in too, Bridgette soon finds her life spiralling into a maelstrom of drama even tougher than anything she faced back at Camp Wawanakwa. Will our sweet surfer girl and future teen mom be able to get out of this mess in one piece?
The story is told in first person from the perspective of Bridgette, with the one exception being the epilogue. The story consists of 15 chapters and the aforementioned epilogue.
