Ride or Die
When Paula, a restless Midwesterner yearning for a fresh start in California, unexpectedly reunites with Sloane—her enigmatic high school crush—the spark between them reignites instantly. What begins as a casual catch-up soon turns into a spontaneous cross-country road trip. But as the miles roll by, hidden secrets and buried traumas surface, and their blossoming romance takes a darker turn. With unexpected consequences at every stop, the journey becomes a fight for trust, survival, and the truth—testing how far they’re willing to go for love, and what they’re running from.
