Born to two hardworking immigrant parents, their tight-knit sibling bond has gotten them through everything. Now, however, she is beginning to resent the domineering attitudes of her brothers, especially the eldest-Felix. Felix has blurred the lines between parent and sibling and dictates her everyday life.

What the boys believe is out of love and consideration for her wellbeing and her future, is the driving force behind Lydia's desire to rebel. When Damon Rodriguez, the bad boy in school, shows a special interest in Lydia, she is tempted to disobey her family and dive into her first real relationship. A tragic occurrence followed by a silver lining allows Lydia some breathing room to explore the new romance.
