Best friends since the sandbox, Yoshi, Bird, and Shayla are all fighting demons from their childhood while navigating young adulthood.
Abandoned by her mother as a child, Shayla grew up with a hole in her heart that was full of doubt, depression, and pain. With a drug-addicted father and a brother who can only hustle backward, she specializes in living rough and settling for struggle. All she has are her best friends, Bird and Yoshi, to link with, but they are both caught up in generational curses. Bird's dark past makes her careless, reckless, and ruthless, but also bitter and lost. She’s looking for love in all the wrong places. Yoshi, loyal to everyone but herself, is busy chasing a fantasy while being cheated out of her dreams.
The clique stays close until the summer before graduation, when a mysterious man with ill motives moves into the neighborhood. Bonds are broken, all bets are off, secrets will shatter their worlds as these ladies realize the love they've been searching for is the same love that's going to wreak havoc on their young hearts.
