Nina Browning is living the good life after marrying into Nashvilleâ€™s elite. More recently, her husband made a fortune selling his tech business, and their adored son has been accepted to Princeton.Â

Yet sometimes the middle-class small-town girl in Nina wonders if sheâ€™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, Nashvilleâ€™s most prestigious private school.

Amid so much wealth and privilege, Lyla doesnâ€™t always fit inâ€”and her overprotective father doesnâ€™t helpâ€”but in most ways, sheâ€™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 togetherâ€”all questioning their closest relationships, asking themselves who they really are, and searching for the courage to live a life of true meaning.
