Fourteen year old Stephanie has secrets that hurt. Her mother is a beautiful alcoholic who hits her. Her father is passive and never comes to her rescue. When her mother finally leaves her for good, Stephanie is sent from her poor neighborhood in Boston to live with a wealthy family in Los Angeles.

For the first time in her life, Stephanie is popular. Until she makes one fatal mistake. And her whole new world explodes.

Stephanie is exposed and humiliated. The whole clique rises up against her. And she fights back in a way she never would have thought possible…
