Synopsis:

Here’s the thing about baby showers: No one actually wants to be there. But there are certain rituals we follow, for the sake of tradition and a gift registry. Nine women have gathered at Grace Driscoll’s beautifully appointed home, fully expecting to go through the motions of social niceties. But an unforseen event in Grace’s life, and a few unexpected guests, send the party careening into uncharted territory.

Simmering resentment, cutthroat professional conflict, fierce battles of will… these are 21st century Southern women, and they have no interest in blessing your heart.
