Be who you were born to be ...
Marina Andersen's structured life is ruled by the Three S's: Swim. Study. Succeed. But all this routine and order leaves little time for what she really wants to do: SING. Try telling that to her overbearing father, a former rock legend whose personal demons keep Marina's extraordinary musical talents behind closed doors.
After a chance performance at school drops a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - and a gorgeous young rocker - at Marina's feet, she'll have to decide what lengths she's willing to go to in pursuit of the one thing that reminds her heart to beat.
While navigating the rough seas of managing her father's expectations and finding her own voice, will Marina summon the courage to show her dad who she really is inside before their family is dashed like a galleon in a storm?
