Photojournalist Jessie Ryder has never been able to travel far enough to escape the pain of giving her baby daughter away. Now, sixteen years later, she's decided to come home to seek out Lila, even if it means upsetting the world of Lila's adoptive mother . . . her very own sister, Luz. As Jessie and Luz examine the true meaning of love, loyalty and family, they are drawn into an emotional tug-of-war filled with moments of unexpected humor, surprising sweetness and unbearable sadness. And as the pain, regrets and mistakes of the past slowly rise to the surface, a new picture emerges -- a picture filled with hope and promise and the redeeming power of the human heart.
