Faith Herbert appears to be a typical teenager, immersed in her love for the TV series "The Grove," spending time with her closest friends Matt and Ches, and dedicating her free hours to a local animal shelter. She's intent on staying near her grandmother post-graduation. However, her life takes an extraordinary turn when she discovers she has the power of flight. This revelation comes after a summer not spent at a journaling camp as planned, but at a special camp where her unique abilities were awakened and tested. Returning to her regular school life, Faith's routine is upended by the arrival of Dakota Ash, the lead actor of her beloved series, who shows up in Glenwood with an interest in adopting a pet and, surprisingly, in Faith herself.

Despite the distraction Dakota presents, and the triangle that forms between Faith, Dakota, and Faith's other interest Johnny, Faith begins to notice a disturbing trend: animals and then people start vanishing from the town. Her investigation links these disappearances to a new, trendy drug circulating in her school. Digging deeper, she uncovers a shocking connection between Dakota, the director of "The Grove," and the sinister developments, including the abduction of her friend Ches. Amidst these revelations, Faith faces a dire situation when an ex of Dakota, previously dismissed as unhinged, turns out to be a crucial informant warning her about Dakota's true intentions.

The story reaches its peak in a dramatic showdown where, against all odds, Dakota sides with Faith to thwart the nefarious plot and rescue those abducted, including the missing dogs. In an unexpected turn of events, Dakota compensates Faith with a significant sum of money for her bravery and the troubles caused. Faith, in a grand gesture of friendship and trust, hands over the money to Ches and reveals her supernatural ability to both of her best friends, closing the chapter on her adventure with a deepened bond between them.
