Twenty-six-year-old Rachel Young is happy as a music therapist at a hospice in sunny Florida. But her mother resents the fact that she didn't take over the family business. When her mother dies after a car accident, Rachel must take on the undesirable role of managing the hotel conglomerate Young International. In California, Rachel deals with the legal matters of her mother's death, which the police deem suspicious. As the executor of the Belmont estate, Rachel must oversee the Morris Young Children's Center, a backlogged home for abused children. She connects with a young boy and teaches him to play the guitar. She also finds herself attracted to the home's administrator-who happens to be engaged. From blindly leading the prestigious family company to managing her guilty feelings for a taken man, Rachel struggles to understand her place in the world. Should she continue her rewarding work at the hospice in Florida or put together the missing pieces of her family's history unearthed during the investigation of her mother's death? Amid the increasingly dark twists and turns, this saga offers a subtle element of charm as one woman strives to find her purpose and the meaning of family.
