Joan is the epitome of Texas glamour and the centre of the 1957 Houston social scene. Tall, blonde, beautiful, strong, she has a talent for dominating the room and the gossip columns. Cece is either Joan's chaperone or her partner in crime, depending on the night and whom you ask. With her husband and toddler, some say Cece shouldn't be concerned with Joan's single-girl exploits. When Joan starts to drift out of reach and beyond the borders of their confined world the summer they are 25, Cece considers it her responsibility to bring her back to the fold, for better or for worse.
