Christian Mitchell has always made her parents proud. She excels in everything she puts her mind to, and because of her intelligence, has warranted herself a top notch education at Kentucky State University. Though an achievement to be proud of, Christian longs for something else. To be accepted by her peers. To be popular. To be loved. Now in her junior year of college, Christian moves from the dorm to a house with other female students. She's on a mission to break out of her shell, and she's willing to do just about anything to make it happen. When her plan results in tragedy, Christian is left vulnerable, and more alone than she's ever been. She can't tell her family, who'd never understand, and she refuses to share what occurred with her best friend Ethan, because of their romantic past. Will Christian find what she's desperately searching for, or will her actions have dire consequences that can cost her so much more than she could ever imagine?
