Summary
Victoria Anderson, a young and ambitious woman, finds herself at a significant turning point in her life. After graduating college with a degree in Computer Science, a notable achievement given her modest upbringing, Victoria returns to her family's farm in Cold Springs, Wyoming.
There, she enjoys the comfort of being with her aging parents and the support of her older sister, who has started her own family. Despite feeling fulfilled by her close family ties, Victoria harbors a deep desire to delve into the vast world of technology, feeling that her talents and dreams extend beyond the confines of Cold Springs.
Victoria's life takes a turn when she discovers an opportunity at Pinnacle Bridal, an e-commerce bridal start-up in Silicon Valley. Driven by a blend of hope and uncertainty, she applies for a position and, to her surprise, lands an interview. The founder of Pinnacle Bridal, impressed by Victoria's technical skills and commitment to volunteer work, sees potential in her. The successful interview leads to a job offer for an entry-level software engineering role, opening the door to Victoria's long-held aspirations.
However, accepting the job means leaving behind her life in Cold Springs, including her beloved family farm and her parents. After careful consideration and with the encouragement of her family, Victoria decides to embrace this new opportunity and moves to Silicon Valley.
There, she encounters a vastly different world from her rural upbringing, settling into a small one-bedroom apartment. Her new life in Silicon Valley takes an interesting turn when she meets a fellow software engineer at Pinnacle Bridal, unknowingly beginning a journey that promises personal and professional growth, along with challenges and unforeseen twists.
