Teenage Nia should be living her life preparing for her future, dating, and getting into trouble. Instead of the normal teenage experience most girls glorify, Nia is robbed of that when her life is shaken up, twisted, and what most would see as ruined. Nia's father is in prison with his brother for a crime they committed together, leaving Nia to be raised by her mother Jasmine and stepfather, Roger. Initially, Nia believes her stepfather is loving, caring, and she instantly becomes a "daddy's girl" from the way he treats her.After an accident gone wrong and possibly the wrong prescription, the side effects of Roger's trauma are now forced onto Nia in more ways than one. With a monster now living in her home, she has no one to turn to. Her brother Alex will soon leave for college, and she'll be left alone with the shell that was once a loving man, now turned stranger. Nia's mother is none the wiser to the abuse and misfortune that has befallen her daughter, and she may never find out unless Nia is willing to take a stand and speak out.If Nia keeps quiet, she may have more to worry about than the average girl would, but if she voices her problems, she could lose everything and everyone around her. Nia's only hope, is her freedom of speech, but will she learn to use it before it's too late or will all be lost for smart and sweet Nia?
