It added, “When Bug informs her that he’ll be marrying his new girlfriend soon, Bailey is furious and hurt, for what will become of her? Her mother lives with a violent, cruel man, and while Bug sports a ferocious love for his daughter, he can be oblivious to the needs of a fledgling teenage girl.”

It also stars Jason Buda as Hunter, Jasmine Jobson (Top Boy) as Peyton, James Nelson-Joyce (Little Boy Blue) as Skate, Frankie Box as Kailey, Joanne Matthews as Debs, and Sarah Beth Harber.
