Twenty-five year old Kali Diaz’s life is a mess. She’s a fuck up and proud of it. She lives in a shit hole; makes careless decisions on the reg; parties hard; and treats casual sex like a sport. Kali is in no hurry to grow up. But why should she? Growing up can come later, right? When Kali gets an unexpected knock at her door one night, she meets a peculiar young girl, Owen, who drops one hell of a bombshell. She claims to be Kali’s daughter - the kid she gave up for adoption ten years ago.
