Summary: Darley, the eldest daughter in the Stockton family, has never worried about money. The product of generational wealth and capitalist success, she renounced her inheritance when she married Malcolm, a first generation Korean American with a lucrative job in banking. Sasha, Darley's new sister-in-law, has come from more humble origins, and her hesitancy about signing a pre-nup has everyone worried about her intentions. Georgiana, newly graduated from Brown and proud to think of herself as a "do-gooder," has enough money from her trust that she's able to work for a pittance at a not-for-profit, where she has started a secret love affair with a senior colleague. Then a scandal derails Malcolm's career, leaving Darley financially in the lurch; Sasha glimpses the less-than-attractive attributes beneath the Stockton brood's carefully-guarded façade, and Georgiana discovers her boyfriend is married and still in love with his wife. They must all come to terms with what money can't buy--the bonds of love that can make and unmake a family. -- adapted from back cover
