I cannot wait for audiences to see what she does next. Stay tuned.

About SweetpeaRhiannon Lewis doesn't make much of an impression - people walk past her in the street without a second glance. She's continually overlooked for a promotion at work, the guy she likes won't commit, and her dad is really, really sick. So far, so shit. Then everything in her life is turned upside down, and Rhiannon is pushed over the edge. She snaps. Suddenly the wallflower is gone, and in its place is a young woman capable of anything Rhiannon's life transforms as she steps into a new, intoxicating power, but can she keep her killer secret?
