In the bustling city of Henderson, Nevada, Hope Novak co-owns StriveFitness with her sister, Ewa Krupa. The fitness center is a thriving business that offers self-defense classes to empower women. However, the sisters are hiding a secret that has made them stronger than they appear. Project Aurora, a government program that manipulates DNA and virtual reality training, has given them years of special operations training.
Hope's life takes a turn when she meets Celia Mendonca, a high school student who wants to earn money for her prom dress.

However, Connor Layton, Celia's boyfriend, disapproves of her growing independence and becomes increasingly controlling. Hope confronts Connor about his behavior, putting him on edge.
Meanwhile, Hector Ramirez, an FBI agent, and friend of Hope's, notices her concern for Celia. He encourages Hope to trust her instincts and protect those she cares about. When Celia is kidnapped, Hope decides to take matters into her own hands.
Hope steps into the criminal world to find Celia before she is sold into human trafficking. Along the way, Annaliese Bauer, a mysterious young woman with a hidden connection to Hope and Ewa, appears on the scene. Her past is shrouded in secrets that could have far-reaching consequences for the sisters.
