"Rules. Secrets. Second chances. Rory never asked for this life, but it's the only one she's got."
Rory Bradford has never had it easy.
Being the daughter of LAPD Sergeant Tim Bradford means rules, discipline, and a father who's both her biggest protector and her toughest critic.
Her biological mom, Isabel, walked out years ago, leaving Rory with scars she doesn't always let people see.
But when Rory crosses paths with Emilie Lopez, a quick-witted girl with a heart of gold (and the daughter of Detective Angela Lopez )
she finally finds the best friend she didn't know she needed. Together, the girls take on the chaos of school, family drama, and growing up in the shadow of parents who run headfirst into danger every day.
As Rory struggles to figure out where she belongs, she also has to face a new reality-her dad's girlfriend, Officer Lucy Chen, might just be the mother figure Rory has been missing. And when Isabel suddenly reappears, Rory's world is thrown into turmoil once again.
