Always dreaming of a career in fashion, she is thrilled to finally be on her way. However, when the grandfather she never knew about dies, her life is suddenly turned upside down. Not only has he left her his estate, he left her in charge of the family business; she is to be the boss of a mob that is trying to become legit.
