See, she was married to Mark, her 35 year old, abusive ex-husband.  Mark and Elizabeth met when she was 19, fell in - what she thought was love- and soon married when she turned 21.  She thought she was living her fairy tale until Mark came home drunk as a skunk and threatening to beat Elizabeth up.  Through countless black eyes, bumps on the head and numerous bruises - Elizabeth finally got the courage to divorce her husband and get a restraining order against him.  She moved out to California for makeup artistry, and just landed her first job in California.  She is the makeup artist for a popular tv show.  She's is getting ready to embark on a new adventure with new friends, a new job, a new city, all while leaving her ex-husband behind, and hopefully finding love again one day..or will she?  It seems her ex doesn't really understand what a restraining order means...
