NOTES

"When Shannon gets engaged, her beloved mom, Cindy is the first person she wants to tell--and the last. Cindy's engaged, too, and has already hinted at a double wedding. The image of a synchronized bouquet toss with her fills Shannon with horror. She'll keep her engagement a secret until Cindy's "i dos" are done. Victoria has never been proper enough for her mother, Ava, so she stopped trying. She lives on her own terms and amuses herself by pushing Ava's buttons. Ava loves but doesn't understand her stuntwoman daughter. When a movie-set mishap brings Victoria home, Ava longs to finally connect. Chance brings the four women together at a wedding venue, where a shocking secret comes tumbling out. Twenty-four years ago, desperate teenager Cindy chose wealthy Ava to adopt her baby--then changed her mind at the last second. The loss rocked Ava's world, leaving her unable to open her heart to the daughter she did adopt, Victoria. As Shannon and Victoria deal with the fallout from the decisions their mothers made, they wrestle with whether who they are is different than who they might have become."--
