Mira Aldaine seemed to have everything; her father was a millionaire, she was popular, and she was one of the states best soccer players.

All she wanted was to move on and start her own life, completely separate from her past, but once she becomes suddenly entangled in a number of dangerous mafia affairs, she realizes her past might not be as easy to escape as she thought.
