"I'd just cut the wire."
    
    When orphaned teen Liz Baker discovers her father is Tony Stark, her world flips upside down. But the life of a socialite of punishing and complicated-even without Child Protective Services being added to the mix.
    
    ~~~
    
    Home has always meant one thing for Elizabeth Baker: the small house where she spent the first five years of her life, before her mom kicked the bucket and she was left for the foster care system. Now, fourteen year old Liz has already been placed into plenty of foster houses that haven't worked out, and she's getting tired of it. That's when her search into genealogy reveals her biological dad (maybe): genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, and apparent father-Anthony Edward Stark. Her new situation isn't quite what she imagined, but that's her home now-right? That is, until CPS comes with Clint and Laura Barton. With her world spinning out of control, Liz will have to decide where her home really is-and what she's willing to sacrifice for it.
    
    Note: lots of timeline-bending shenanigans are ahead. Prepare yourself for slightly less-than-canonical events.All Rights Reserved
