As children, Lila and Abigail were dear friends despite their social differences: Lila was the daughter of a moneyed family, Abigail was the daughter of the housekeeper. But when Lila's family threw Abigail and her mother out of the house, their friendship was shattered. Years later, their fortunes have been reversed: Abigail is a television celebrity while Lila is penniless and recovering from her husband's suicide. Seeking help she comes to Lila, who gives her a job as a housekeeper, a situation complicated further by the arrival of Lila's twin brother Vaughn--the love of Abigail's childhood.

"Rosie and Abigail are like family," Ina Merriweather used to say. That is, until the day Ina abruptly cast out her housekeeper, Rosie, and her fifteen-year-old daughter Abigail. Abigail felt deeply betrayed, especially by Ina's daughter Lila, who was her closest friend. Only Lila's twin brother Vaughn, with whom Abigail had been exploring the joys and heartaches of first love, showed any compassion. Now, twenty-five years later, an old score is about to be settled...and an old love rekindled. Abigail is now a self-made woman who has built an empire out of the homemaking skills she learned from her mother. When Lila, who married well and for decades lived the glittering life of a Park Avenue socialite, suffers a tragic reversal of fortune, an opportunity to right an old wrong lands squarely in Abigail's lap. Lila seeks the help of her childhood friend, but learns that the only opening available at the moment is as her housekeeper and Lila has no choice but to accept. At the same time, Abigail is coping with the fallout from a fire in her Mexico factory, which took the life of an innocent girl, whose mother, Concepcion Morales, now seeks the rich senora she holds responsible for her daughter's death. In a collision of fate, Abigail, Lila, and Concepcion are thrown together and must unite to save one another...and themselves.
