Being the baby causes her to form an inevitable dependency on people. Reading this novel takes you through a journey of her childhood, allowing you to witness the good and bad experiences she encounters, which later merges to form the foundation of her adulthood. After encountering a life altering event in her mid-teen years, Ronnie almost self-destructs, and is forced to seek help.

While doing so, she battles to rediscover her identity and to define her purpose in life.
