Aleah Bass wrote this book for her senior writing project class in her senior year of college. It was a two semester class that included a lot of editing and adding to the book throughout it all with the help of her professor and classmates through Zoom since they were online her whole senior year. Aleah loves reading romance novels or dramas. Her inspiration for this piece was to make it seem like a lifetime movie. She wanted the reader to really feel as though they are in the main character's shoes. While coming up with that, she thought of the idea of making up a fictional character and have them encounter real life events and ran with it. She made this character face hard situations that made her get to her goal of getting into her dream college. Going off of that, Cass had to face addiction, loss, heartbreak and life changing moments that altered her life forever. She comes up on top and makes her come back through self-intervention, recovery, and therapy. It's never too late to get to your dream destination and that is exactly what She wanted her character to portray.
