At the age of 21, Calla has lived a very restrained life, lacking many common childhood experiences. She has endured the emotional and physical toll of growing up with a troubled, secret‑keeping mother named Mona. When Calla learns that Mona has fraudulently taken her college money and accrued significant debt, she is forced to return to the small town she once left behind to confront her mother’s mess. Upon arriving at her mother’s bar, Calla finds Mona missing and the establishment under the care of a new bartender, Jackson James. Jackson, intense and charming, offers Calla employment and helps her begin the search for Mona. While their close partnership develops, Calla must also confront unresolved pain from her past and confront dangerous people who threaten her if she does not give in to their demands.
