Seventeen-year-old Talia Rivera survives by perfect plans and private sketches—until a developer targets her family's struggling café and a design-school review demands she show her process. With beatmaker best friend Jamal, a fierce print-shop mentor, and ten public "risk drafts," Talia learns to unfold in front of her neighborhood—mistakes, revisions, and all. As money tightens and friendships strain, she must choose visibility over perfection and community over applause. A tender coming-of-age about art, grit, and taking the next small step—then the next.
