Meet Ali. Abandoned after her parents die in a car crash, Ali has been raised in foster care in a harsh environment since she was 8. Learning to tough it out early in life, she still manages to hold her head high. The streets teach her to fight stronger than one can ever learn in a classroom, while the isolation of her foster home teaches her how to be strong, patient, and work hard. So what happens when she is suddenly shipped to an ivy league boarding school? And what is with the snobby students? Join Ali on her journey, to discover herself, her family, and the truth about her parents death.
