Sophie Banacek works in the cosmetics department of a once-popular retail chain. Jobs are at stake, sales pressure is high, and competition is fierce. After 20 years in the industry, Sophie is jaded, and she's bored with her job. At 42, she's considered an old-timer in the industry. With the odds of landing a job in a better store dwindling each year, she's worried. When the latest miracle serum by upstart company Face Age Beauty lands in her bay with its promise of incredible results and the media begins pushing a "Youth Is The New Beautiful" campaign endorsed by celebrities using the serum, Sophie is re-energized for sales success, security, and MONEY, and so is her store. But why after a couple of months is she the only one in her store who has misgivings about the new serum? What is it that raises a red flag? Why was a chain like Hillier's given a year-long exclusive on an expensive product? And what's up with her handsome co-worker friend?Before Sophie can start investigating her theories about the serum, she's pressured to choose job and financial security over her dedication to Mirielle Marjolaine, the line she's represented for years. Her eventual decision challenges friendships, loyalties, and ethics, and leads her into situations she would never have imagined.
