Being a model can be hard especially when dealing with the pressure and stress from your agent and people around the agency.

Gabriella Madrigal has been a model since she was twelve and now twenty- one years old dealing with harsh comments from her agent and the other models who hate her are having success in the modeling business.  

Gabriella could pretend that everything is fine when she knows it is not and try to not kill herself by forcing herself to lose more weight to fit that perfect model type that her agent wants even though the crazy part, she already has that perfect body for it.

Can she overcome it and stand up for herself by ignoring the comments? Or will she give up and end the dreams that made her who she is right now?


Also, will  Gabriella let someone in her life to help and love her no matter what and always still be with her even though she is dealing with a lot of things? 

Someone like Kai Hyun, a twenty-two years old photographer whom she met at her job after both of them bumped into each other......well as you know the rest is history and it ends in a happy ending :)
