Darley, the eldest daughter in the closely-tied, carefully-guarded, old money Stockton family, made the classic feminine mistake and gave up her job for her children. Sasha married into the Stocktons, and finds herself the outsider looking into the fishbowl. Georgianna, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she can't (and really shouldn't) have. Rife with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York's one percenters, this is a smart, escapist novel between the haves and have-nots and everything in between, and the insanity of first love.
