Lara Jean writes letters to the boys she has loved, then hides them away instead of sending them. When the letters reach their recipients, even her feelings for her sister's former boyfriend become impossible to keep private. A pretend relationship with Peter Kavinsky seems like a way to contain the embarrassment, until maintaining the arrangement starts to stir up feelings she did not plan for.
