At the tender age of six, she lost both of her parents and was forced to move in with her aunt from hell, along with her aunt's four other children. Kaitlynn is a senior in high school, attending Miami Edison High School. While the other students may be coming to school, sporting new clothes and new shoes, Kaitlynn is always sporting new bruises on her body because at home, she is her aunt's punching bag, getting whipped for any little thing she does.
Daniel Carter is the hood's finest tattoo artist and quite the ladies' man. With all of the bruises on Kaitlynn's body and her messed up lifestyle, Daniel sees a beautiful girl who's just been dealt some bad cards in life and wants to get to know her as a friend but he can't help the physical attraction between the two.
