Maya Stark's seemingly glamorous life in Beverly Hills is overshadowed by personal struggles, including her parents' divorce and her mother's drug use. At fifteen, she grapples with her biracial identity and the pressure of her father's fame. As her mother's finances dwindle, Maya seeks emancipation by taking a job on Rodeo Drive, which conflicts with her eco-conscious beliefs. This journey explores themes of identity, family dynamics, and the sacrifices made for independence amidst a backdrop of wealth and fame.
