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.
