Nina Browning is living the good life after marrying into Nashville's
elite. More recently, her husband made a fortune selling his tech
business, and their adored son has been accepted to Princeton.
Yet sometimes the middle-class small-town girl in Nina wonders if she's
strayed from the person she once was.
Tom Volpe is a single dad working multiple jobs while struggling to
raise his headstrong daughter, Lyla. His road has been lonely, long, and
hard, but he finally starts to relax after Lyla earns a scholarship to
Windsor Academy, Nashville's most prestigious private school.
Amid so much wealth and privilege, Lyla doesn't always fit in--and her
overprotective father doesn't help--but in most ways, she's a typical
teenaged girl, happy and thriving.
Then, one photograph, snapped in a drunken moment at a party, changes
everything. As the image spreads like wildfire, the Windsor community is
instantly polarized, buzzing with controversy and assigning blame.
At the heart of the lies and scandal, Tom, Nina, and Lyla are forced
together--all questioning their closest relationships, asking themselves
who they really are, and searching for the courage to live a life of
true meaning.
