Summary
When Andi met Ethan in her thirties, she knew he was just the man she'd been waiting for...and the fact that he had two daughters already felt like the icing on the cake. Andi had always wanted a family.
But family life did not unfold in the way that Andi had anticipated, and their "blended" family began to feel more like a chaotic cauldron of warring temperaments and unsolvable conflicts. At the heart of these conflicts was Ethan's teenage daughter Emily, whose histrionic behavior and horrific tantrums began to define their daily lives. Sophia, on the other hand, despite being the youngest, presented as calm, mature, and easily loved.
Because Ethan had a neutral kind of personality, he found himself constantly mediating between Andi and Emily; and in trying to calm Emily down during her tantrums, he appeared to be taking her side.
Something happens during Emily's seventeenth year that changes the dynamics and direction of this family. How will these unexpected events unfurl and cause them all to take another look at things? And what will be the ultimate outcome?
