What happens when the life you have is not the life you want?

But lately J.R. has become obsessed with his empire and Christine feels taken for granted. . .until Wade Eddie Fisher, a bad boy with good looks from Christine's past, comes back to town. Even though Wade is penniless and undependable, he reignites something deep within Christine. Before long she's immersed in a sultry show more affair, and has devised a plan so risky that it promises to deliver all she could possibly want—or shatter the lives of everyone close to her. . .
