Summary

17-year-old Emelia, who wants to pursue a writing career, takes a job at a B&B owned by former writer Jonathan Fischer and run by his wife Joa. Sensing emerging talent in Emelia, Jonathan begins to tutor her, leading to a relationship that soon develops into a secret affair. Meanwhile, bookish daughter Beth Fischer finds an unlikely friend in the free-spirited Emelia and begins to reveal the details of the Fischer family's troubled past. Now unless she can extricate herself from her relationship with Jonathan, Emelia just might destroy what solidarity the family has left.
