Age: 16
Hometown: Topeka, NY
Friends would say: Jena’s one of the friendliest people we know, but shy sometimes. She’s really pretty, but is always comparing herself to others. Since she came back from Paradise, though, she’s become more comfortable in her own skin!

Tangled with:
Skye—their moms are best friends, but does that mean the daughters are as well?
Dakota—a hottie she sees at Paradise. Will they connect?
Owen—a blogger she sees at Paradise. Will there be virtual sparks?



Age: 17
Hometown: New York City
Friends would say: Skye has changed a lot over the past year. She used to be the kind of girl that all the other girls wanted to be—popular, beautiful, and with a smokin’ hot boyfriend. But ever since she left school to “focus on her career”, she’s been so…distant.

Tangled with:
Jena—their moms are best friends. Will Skye and Jena be too?
Dakota—a hottie she sees at Paradise. Is he Skye’s type?



Age: 18
Hometown: Brockport, NY
Friends would say: Dakota’s always good for two or three runs when we play baseball or a quick pin when he’s wrestling. Everybody likes him, but he can be kind of a jerk to girls. Even his girlfriend, Natalie, thinks so. Or, at least she used to think so.

Tangled with:
Owen—his blogger brother. A lot of people question how they could be related.
Jena—a girl he sees at Paradise. Will she give in to his charm?
Skye—another girl from Paradise. Is she more Dakota’s speed?



Age: 15
Hometown: Rochester, NY
Friends would say: Owen’s pretty quiet, even for our group. He’s always on his laptop, but doesn’t really share what he’s writing about with us. It’s hard to know what he’s all about when he won’t open up.

Tangled with:
Dakota—his older brother, the jock. Owen’s sick of hearing, “You’re Dakota’s brother? What happened?”
Jena—a virtual friend. Her positive perspective is not one that Owen is used to.
