Description
Revenge, romance, betrayal, and long-buried family secrets. It’s 1957 in the Midwest, where poverty has grown in an extreme way.
Through a shaming experience at school, Rijeka learns that her family is one of the least respected in the community. She refuses to be defined by those obsessed with judging who and what she can become. Focused on ambitions, she finds roads open to her, but just as many others are blocked by cruel and petty persons in her small town.
The last thing Rijeka expects is to fall for a handsome young man who has probably dated every girl in the school except her. But after graduation, her world is turned upside down by a love at first sight attraction for an older man.
She wonders what will bring her lasting fulfillment. Does a woman measure her success, individuality, and fortune in life through happiness and love, or through freedom? She is searching for a way to have it all.
