Six best friends. One beachfront reunion. Every secret they swore they'd buried.
Grammy-winning R&B star Lilly "VAELI" has the platinum plaques, the fiancé, and the oceanfront estate. What she doesn't have is her best friend back. Not since the confession that detonated their whole circle and left shrapnel in everyone who loved her.
So when Chef Becca pitches a holiday reunion - the whole crew, kids and all, under one roof for the first time in years - Lilly says yes. Because these are the women who knew her before the fame. The ones who saw her at her lowest and stayed.
But everybody's arriving with baggage that won't fit in the overhead.
Mary is still learning how to forgive the sister who kept a secret about her marriage. Gina is a drill sergeant who can command a battlefield but can't rebuild the trust her husband broke. Sally is finally letting a good man love her slow - if her past will let her. Katie is smiling through a marriage to a man she's certain is lying to her. And Becca just wants one perfect holiday before the biggest change in her career.
Add strong drinks, grown-folk drama, six-year-olds on a sugar high, and a house full of history, and something's bound to boil over.
Because you can decorate a beach house for Christmas. You can cook enough to feed an army. But you can't wrap up the truth and hide it under the tree forever.
This holiday, the reunion they've been praying for might be the reckoning they've been running from.
