Mallory’s philosophy is to ask neither forgiveness nor permission. Yet the reckless behavior of their biggest investor crosses lines even Mallory didn’t know she had.

Told alternately from the perspectives of these three best friends, ultimately asking: Do our choices define us, or do we define our choices?
