Lissy Ryder once ruled her suburban Chicago high school. Students worshipped her, feared her, loved her. Twenty years later, she lives in her childhood bedroom surrounded by hair band posters. Her high paying job is gone. Her husband dumped her. She lost her condo. At thirty seven, she runs a struggling business from her parents' garage and wonders how her glory days vanished so completely. The answer becomes clear when she examines her past behavior. Karma caught up with her mean girl ways. Her current misery stems directly from how she treated others in high school. But Lissy discovers she might have a chance to rewrite history. She could return to her teenage years and change who she was. The question becomes whether she can transform from the bitch she used to be into someone worthy of the life she wants.
