Con su inconfundible cabello azul y su más de uno ochenta de estatura, Ramona Blue está segura de unas cuantas cosas: le gustan las chicas, adora a su familia, la natación es su pasatiempo favorito y está destinada a algo mucho más grande que el remolque en el que vive. No obstante, las cosas no le resultan fáciles con una madre inestable, un padre amoroso pero deprimido y una hermana adolescente que los ha sorprendido a todos con un embarazo.

Nora tiene tres problemas. El primero es que sus dos mejores amigos han roto. Así que ahora tiene que aguantar que se repartan su custodia con mensajes muy fríos de WhatsApp. El segundo es que Marcos, el chico del que lleva enamorada desde el instituto, no termina de darse cuenta de que están hechos el uno para la otra y se empeña en salir con otras chicas. El tercero es que ha pillado a su madre y a la vecina en la cama. Y esto sería precioso (pasado el trauma inicial) si no hubieran decidido vivir todos juntos: las dos mujeres, Nora y Adrián.
