After years of being the dutiful godmother to her old friend Delilah’s son—paying bills, buying gifts, and bailing them out—Victoria Miller gets shoved under a truck for speaking up. She wakes up with a second life and one ironclad rule: no more martyrdom. What starts as setting firm boundaries explodes into a high-stakes urban war of evidence, lawsuits, and reputations. Victoria pulls together receipts, hidden videos, and a detective’s cold files to expose a boy’s secret account and a mother’s enabling lies. Her victory in court should end it — but a mutilated body, a lawyer’s dirty trail, and a suspicious death pull Victoria into a final hunt for truth. This is an adrenaline-paced urban revenge story about a woman who will no longer be the scapegoat. From merciless public shaming to legal knockout blows, she claws back what’s hers, protects the innocent, and rebuilds a life on her own terms. But the city keeps secrets—some people will pay with everything. Will Victoria’s second chance bring justice or a new danger she never anticipated?
