Splicing of Changes (Editing)

Kristina Monroe, a 16-year-old, recently orphaned, is shipped to live with her elder sister, Victoria. The sisters have been separated for 12 years and they are basically strangers now. Hardship is not new to Kristina, neither is pushing through it. But everything Kristina knew was about to change. With a new town comes new people, new friends and new love interests. And as the wounds from the past start to heal and the bond between the sisters tightens, new revelations come to light. When the past starts to meddle with the new life Kristina started, can she stop from her past to come tumbling down? Disrupting her new life as well as delivering some shocks to her and the people surrounding her.
They say second chances are rare, but no one talks about how difficult it is to open up to the possibility of something new. As Kristina starts to accept her life in the new town opening up to new possibilities, can she really open her heart to a second chance at love? Or will she stay true to her first love and stay stuck in the past? Second chances are indeed rare but Kristina is about to find out how difficult it is to be open to such chances.
With everything around her changing, Kristina's hold on to her past tightens. The more revelations come to light, the more she is pushed back into the clutches of her past. Will she be able to finally let go and embrace her present? With the help of her new oddball friends, her sister and two persistent kids, follow Kristina through her journey.
