Eleanor walked away from a billion-dollar inheritance to marry Jacob, a poor boy she believed was worth more than the money. Three years later she is pregnant, planning to finally tell him who she really is over Thanksgiving dinner, and instead finds him already gone — convinced his mistress is the shortcut to a promotion. He leaves her on the highway, then locks her in the trunk of his car and drives south, and the baby does not survive the trip.
Her brothers pull her out of the wreckage, and for the first time in years Eleanor stops pretending to be small. She files for divorce, lets the inheritance she abandoned come back into play, and starts dismantling the life Jacob built on her silence. He still has no idea who he married — or what is about to land on him.
