Marta Zinsser grew up in a conservative old Seattle suburb and couldn't wait to leave for New York, where she thrived as an independent woman with no need for men--ever--until she decided to have a baby. Ten years later, when her mother becomes ill, Marta realizes that this may be her daughter Eva's last chance to get to know her grandmother. Returning to Seattle, Marta and Eva take up residence on the affluent, technology-drenched Eastside, filled now by snobby old money families and even snobbier nouveau riche. Enrolling Eva in the local school, Marta accedes to her daughter's wishes and agrees to join the PTA despite being horrified by the fancy moms who dominate it. With wealthy husbands, massive homes, nannies, no jobs, and their own hierarchy, the fancy moms have no intention of letting a bohemian mom like Marta into their private circle.

Will Marta be able to carve a niche for both herself and Eva? And when gorgeous maverick Luke Flynn appears in Marta's line of vision, will she find love after keeping it at arm's length all this time?
