Her husband was the one who was there for their three girls.

But now he wants something of his past back - the life he had before Susie's career took off, before they had children. And those children don't see their mother's business the way she has always seen it, thereby threatening the balance she has worked so hard to achieve. And then, amidst the simmering tensions, someone significant from the past, someone almost forgotten, turns up.

The problems of the past, the present, and the future all become challenges to the stability of both family and work.

Which relationships - if any - will survive?
