Widowed Pam Ridgeway wants to mobilize a charity to help laid-off workers after suddenly losing her own job in a mass Wall Street meltdown. But creating a new charity will thrust her into the public eye, which she’s always hated, unlike her estranged daughter and intimidating mother. Yielding to their insistence on bold publicity tactics takes Pam totally out of her comfort zone—until she meets Bruce, her mother's handsome new neighbor at her Long Island beachfront home. Bruce is sympathetic, easy to talk to, and attracted to Pam. But Bruce has a secret agenda involving her mother and a mystery from the past. Pam's daughter, a fiercely ambitious financial reporter, struggles to keep a lid on her passionate attraction to the hottie she works with—even as she takes every opportunity to advance her career regardless of Pam's wishes. Pam's mother wonders why Bruce reminds her of someone from the past. In a long life filled with social activism, she has met many people, but there's something about him... Three generations of women contend with conflicting needs, desires, and opportunities that put them at odds with each other.
