Grace King Bichon has the perfect life... Or at least that's what she's always thought--until she sees her husband giving an unknown young woman a passionate kiss on his lunch hour. Then, suddenly, everything about her picture-perfect existence begins to look very different to her. She reconsiders her traditional Southern-gentry family--her strong-willed father, Wyly King, who has built a horse-breeding empire by making sure his word is law--her gracious, genteel mother, Georgia, who has quietly acquiesed to Wyly's will for decades--her feisty sister, Emma Rae, who's the one person in the family who sees things as they really are--her young daughter, Caroline, already an expert horsewoman, but determined to ride a challenging, bigger horse in the upcoming Grand Prix competition--and of course, her husband, Eddie, Grace's college sweetheart, whose gradual disenchantment with their marriage has been all but invisible to Grace. Until now.

A woman seeks solace with her family after her husband has an affair.
