Meanwhile, on the other hand of town, recently widowed Cassie Malone is an outspoken housewife covered by her wealth and privileged white society. Working part-time at a newspaper, she is attracted to Betty Jewel through her secret advertising. With racial anxiety in the South brewing, the ladies forge a bond as profound as it is forbidden. But neither girl could have thought the gifts they might find in each other, and in the special young girl they both love with almost all their hearts.
