23-year-old Marissa McKinney has always been known as the "people pleaser". By always being overly-considerate of her parents thoughts and desires, she has always lived her life meeting others needs before hers. Because of her infatuation for making others happy she even submitted herself to studying a career she had absolutely no interest in. She  - somewhat forcefully - got into law school because of her father, whom was always pressuring her to be keep up with the "family business and career". But Marissa is determined to leave her people-pleasing days behind her as she embarks in a completely new, unplanned and exclusively satisfying to her, thrilling adventure.
