Morgan Grant and her teenage daughter, Clara, share a strong desire to be distinctly different from each other.
Morgan is resolute in her determination to shield Clara from repeating the same errors she herself made. Having faced the consequences of an early marriage and pregnancy that curtailed her own aspirations, Morgan is determined to chart a different course for her daughter. Clara, on the other hand, is determined not to walk the same path as her mother. She perceives Morgan as predictable and lacking in spontaneity.
As their personalities clash and their aspirations diverge, Morgan and Clara find coexistence increasingly challenging. The sole person capable of restoring harmony within their household is Chris—Morgan’s husband, Clara’s father, and the familial anchor. However, this equilibrium is shattered when Chris becomes embroiled in a tragic and questionable accident. The resulting heartbreak and enduring ramifications extend far beyond the realm of Morgan and Clara.
Amid their struggles to rebuild the fragments of their lives, Morgan unexpectedly discovers solace in someone she would never have anticipated, while Clara turns to a young man she has been forbidden to see. With each day that passes, fresh secrets, resentment, and misunderstandings drive a wedge between mother and daughter. Their separation grows so pronounced that reuniting them might seem insurmountable.
