Lilly has sworn off theft, but when her scholarship disappears, she faces an impossible choice. She needs money for college tuition, and her brother who raised her depends on her success. The skills that once gave her an unmatched rush become her only option to stay in school. Lilly tells herself this return to crime is temporary, just until she gets back on track. Then Justin appears, an attractive distraction who believes in her dreams and pushes her to find legitimate solutions. But as Lilly gets pulled deeper into a world of expensive cars and dangerous money, Justin gets dragged along with her. The criminal underworld she thought she could control begins to control her instead. Old patterns prove difficult to abandon, and Lilly must navigate between the future she wants and the past she cannot escape.
