Riley was never the kid anyone noticed in school-quiet, withdrawn, and content to stay in the background. But as an adult, she's determined to rewrite her story. Outgoing, charming, and eager to connect, Riley tries harder than ever to make friends, find love, and step into a life she once only watched from the sidelines. But transforming her past doesn't come without challenges, and Riley must learn that becoming someone new doesn't mean she has to lose who she really is.
