Shelly is forced to fight her way through life trying to fit in. From birth, she is seemingly unwanted. She is confused as to why her life is so difficult so as soon as she is able, she cuts ties and runs. She runs anywhere she can, without understanding the consequences of her actions. She doesn't care what happens, just that she can get away from the unfairness of her life. Shelly has no idea of how life works, other than she has to have a job (or two or three), she always must pay her car payment and insurance, and she is never allowed to pay credit card bills late. She is never taught to manage her money or her life, and just flies by the seat of her pants. Her good nature and naivety put her in situations she might have avoided if she didn't spend her life cutting ties and running. Shelly's always wanted to live in Florida. The beaches, the sun, and the beautiful ocean called to her, but there was no way she would be able to prepare for everything that beauty had in store for her. Florida is the ultimate test of Shelly's independence. Follow Shelly's adventures as she learns how to reinvent herself just to survive.
