Although their petite appearances are strikingly similar, ROBIN and DESIREE (DESI) have little in common. When Desi moves to the small town of Shady Gully, Louisiana, unpopular Robin feels diminished by the new girl's glory.

But fate has other ideas, and as these two isolated girls are drawn together, a friendship born in high school soon evolves into a bond that promises to last a lifetime. Even as their paths diverge, and they clumsily marry and plow through raising families of their own, they remain true.

As they nurse their respective bruises and carry their traumas from childhood into their own marriages, they always have each other's backs and remain a force to be reckoned with.

Until years later, just as they're enjoying the prime of their lives, a stunning rumor surfaces to threaten their lifelong connection. The allegation suggests that one has betrayed the other.

Truth? Lie? Does it matter? Sometimes just the hint of betrayal can ruin a lifelong bond.

As their worlds collide, and old insecurities rise to the forefront, the layers of Desi and Robin's legendary friendship begin to unravel.

Just when it seems they've lost everything, the truth brings them full circle ...and in their brokenness they come to realize that there is only one true way to fill the emptiness inside, to quiet the lies—and to ultimately become...fearless.
