Where We Start From

Poppy and Stephen Endicott are the toast of Louisburg Square and the glory of Instagram. Stephen's strong suits are his good looks, his charm, and his two handicap. His lesser suits? Fidelity and sobriety. Poppy's lesser suit? Her cactus spikes of doom.
One night, a knock on the door changes Poppy's comfortable, secure, privileged life forever. Widowed abruptly, she plunges into depression while her mother and sisters cluck over her and the kids flounder.
When her mother moves in and takes over her household, Poppy decides she may have mourned enough. While grappling with another unexpected change, she must learn to pick up the pieces of her own life and more importantly, her children's lives.
