Now grown, Hannah has done the unthinkable and written a poison-pen novel that could tear apart not only her relationship with her mother and the other Barefoot Girls, but also pushes Hannahs life into a downward spiral that threatens to destroy everything that matters to her including her engagement to Daniel, the one man who had been able to scale the high walls around her heart. As Hannah battles to come to terms with her equally blessed and troubled childhood and understand her mother and her sister-close friends, shes confronted with the power of forgiveness and the dangers of holding on to the past.
