Sixteen. Rebellious. Willful. And seemingly determined to end her scholastic career as soon as the state will allow. Amber's only interest at present is her boyfriend, an oft-shirtless teenage delinquent and wanna-be rock star. It's all too familiar territory for Sarah, who doesn't want to see her daughter make the same mistakes she made years ago. She uproots Amber from her dead-end Fresno life and into her grandparent's house to start anew. Deep down Amber wants the clean slate her mom is trying to give her. Unfortunately, Amber's wild-child reputation is not so easily left behind and her mistakes continue to haunt her even as she tries to start over.
