Everyone in life is dealt a hand of cards. The player can't control if they are dealt a good or bad hand but the player can control the outcome if they play their cards right. A bad hand doesn't automatically mean you lose, it just makes the game harder to play. This story isn't about cards. Rayland was dealt a bad hand.

One day, she gets into a car accident which leaves her father dead and her losing most of her memory. She gets placed with her aunt and abusive boyfriend. When her aunt gets married, she finds out she has 6 step-cousins. Will her bad hand be enough to win the game or was she doomed to fail?
