More DescriptionCan you start a new life if you're the same person?Filled with high hopes for a better, gentler life, Tess Williams packs up a moving van and drives cross country to start a new life with her husband, Noah, in a tiny Midwestern college town. Despite the time and distance which she puts between herself and her childhood, memories of her mother and her unconventional upbringing haunt her as she settles in her new life.And about that new life...well, that's not going quite as smoothly as she hoped either. Noah had promised her a summer filled with rest and relaxation in her own backyard pool. Instead, unforeseen money problems result in Noah's not-so-brilliant plan for the newlyweds to become managers of the community pool.Rigid adherence to social etiquette keeps a smile on her face, yet she fights against her real emotions as her dream is shattered by not only money problems, but the dashed illusions of people who should have their lives together.Tess believes she knows her heart's desire. However, when that hope always fails, she must dig deeper than the façade she has assumed.
