Beth is a beautiful well educated independent woman. When an opportunity presents itself to get a book deal from the wealthiest family in New York, she is catapulted into a lifestyle of lavish riches and excess. Somewhat judgmental with a preconceived notion that the rich are spoiled and self-absorbed, she finds supporting confirmation when she meets Grayson Vanders, a family member. Their conflict is immediate as he presents himself to be arrogant and condescending.
Overshadowing that negativity, she meets the matriarch of the family. Mrs. Vanders shows depth and values that Beth didn't know existed with the privileged. Having lost her parents a few years ago in a fatal car crash, she is vulnerable to the matriarch's motherly instincts regarding her. A deep respect is built, causing Mrs. Vanders to confide her darkest secrets. Beth learns things that shakes and shapes the core of her beliefs.
