Cate Cassidy and Nathaniel Bazile, 16 years ago, gave into an impulse at Winter Formal that created their daughter Lux. Baze's failure to step up and Cate's inability to raise the child on her own caused Lux to be put up for adoption. 16 years later, Lux returns, determined to seek emancipation from her birth parents and live life on her own terms. In a moment, Cate and Baze's lives are thrown off balance. Due to extraordinary circumstances, they are brought together to raise her. This is their story---theirs ups, downs---the banter, the tragedy, but also the hope and the love that makes them worth following and adoring.
