They have a loving marriage, living in Fort Lee, New Jersey, and both work in their professions in Manhattan until a phone call turns their lives upside down. For better or worse. Vanessa is at home on her much-needed staycation. Her phones are ringing off the hook. Her twin sister, Veronica, calls like always to ask if she can take care of her eleven-year-old daughter, Layla, while she is off to her seminars, and the house phone rings, which startles her. A gentleman's voice on the other end of the line asks if he can speak to Maximillian Worthington, saying that he's a lawyer from Washington DC. During dinner, Vanessa tells her husband that he received a phone call from a DC Lawyer. Max is confused about why a lawyer is calling him. He returns the call, and the lawyer explains to him about a will left by the Barringtons. He is bewildered and starts spewing questions over the unexpected call. The lawyer tells him that he's in town and asks if he can come by to explain everything to him. The distinguished-looking lawyer tells them before the Barringtons' death that they drafted a will that stated Max, their only heir, would get their massive fortune. Then he reads a handwritten letter from his birth mother that he is adopted. Max is confused and furious about why his parents kept his adoption from him. That evening, Vanessa and Max opens the envelopes the lawyer gave them. They are amazed by seeing the pictures of the beautiful mansion in Waldorf, Maryland, and the enormous check. Much to the astonishment of the inheritance, Max tells Vanessa that he will quit his job. Vanessa squashes his excitement and suggests in a subtle way to face his parents first, see the mansion, and then announce to family and friends about the inheritance when the time is right. Vanessa feels her husband's heart and sees his parents' shame for not telling Max he is adopted. They go to Maryland along with Layla to see the mansion and fall in love with it. When they return, Vanessa wants to dispute whether to keep the mansion or not, and Veronica returns from her seminar to pick up Layla. Max tries to avoid the confrontation. Over dinner, he makes the big announcement that they are keeping the mansion. Max is in his office calling his boss to tell him he will not be at work. Vanessa overhears the conversation and asks him why he isn't going to the architecture firm. He keeps a straight face, lying about going to Waldorf. Vanessa is unaware that he surprises her by preparing the house for their twentieth anniversary. Veronica asks Vanessa if her daughter can stay again for two weeks. On the day Veronica is to return, she calls Vanessa, pleading if Max can pick her up later because of the flight delay. Vanessa and her niece are impatient and worry about why it's taking them so long to come home. Nevertheless, they are happy, and Vanessa is surprised to hear a knock on the door. The Newark Police are at the door, and she reluctantly invites them inside her home. Vanessa's heart breaks, and her niece is numb by the shocking news the police tell them. A six-car pile caused by a police chase killed six families. Vanessa tells her family and friends about the heartbreaking news that happened to Max and Veronica. She prays for a change for her and Layla after the tragedy. As Vanessa goes through her grief and healing, Layla lives with her in Waldorf, Maryland. God blesses her heart again. She meets a widower, Dr. Titus Morrison, at her parents' Thanksgiving dinner that year. But as they get closer, guilt starts to creep in--falling for him, taking the role of mother, his crazy doctor's schedule, her best friend, and her daughter's move in after her bitter divorce.

Book Description
The INDIES INTRODUCE and INDIE NEXT debut YA novel about blood and family that is both history and mystery. Noni Reid has grown up in the shadow of her mother, Dr. Radiance Castine, renowned scholar of Black literature, who is alarmingly perfect at just about everything. When Dr. Castine takes a job as the president of the prestigious Stonepost College in rural Virginia, Noni is forced to leave her New England home and, most importantly, a prime internship and her friends. She and her mother move into the “big house” on Tangleroot Plantation. Tangleroot was built by one of Noni’s ancestors, an enslaved man named Cuffee Fortune—who Dr. Castine believes was also the original founder of Stonepost College, and that the school was originally formed for Black students. Dr. Castine spends much of her time trying to piece together enough undeniable truth in order to change the name of the school in Cuffee’s honor—and to force the university to reckon with its own racist past. Meanwhile, Noni hates everything about her new home, but finds herself morbidly fascinated by the white, slaveholding family who once lived in it. Slowly, she begins to unpeel the layers of sinister history that envelop her Virginia town, her mother’s workplace, her ancestry—and her life story as she knew it. Through it all, she must navigate the ancient prejudices of the citizens in her small town, and ultimately, she finds herself both affirming her mother’s position and her own—but also discovering a secret that changes everything.
