Description

Sophisticated, funny - and deliciously erotic - this captivating series follows three young women navigating the modern culture clash playing out in historically conservative, but increasingly progressive Salt Lake City. Sarah Bryant grew up a good Mormon girl on a Utah horse farm. She was loyal, endearingly naïve, and perfectly happy in the shadow of her more outgoing childhood friends, until one world-changing autumn morning sent her on an unexpected course. Growing up next door to Sarah, Kyra Whitney was a world apart, with a hard-drinking mother and all the shame that created in suburban Salt Lake. But Kyra figured a way out of that trap, and finds herself in a luxuriant existence in Paris - as the pampered mistress of a married man. Then, Sarah calls with tragic news that brings Kyra back to her childhood home, and a long-hidden past of abuse and betrayal. Annabelle Franklin - known as "Anna! Bell" to her thousands of drive-time listeners - completes the trio. Though she has a Ph.D. in gender studies and isn't afraid to use it, she's taken up burlesque dancing on the side and is totally plugged into Salt Lake City's surprising counterculture. This witty, irreverent, and ultimately heartbreaking romance floats the canals of Venice, suns on the beaches of St. Lucia, and strolls the Bund of Shanghai. But the three independent women at its center always return to their Salt Lake roots as they explore love, loss, and lust of life.
