Reese Donahue (Jessica Rothe) ?an aspiring writer, works hard to keep from working. She suffers from a strong case of entitlement. Her mother died when she was sixteen, and her father, Grayson Donahue (Kevin Kilner) tries to give Reese and her sister, Audrey (Louise Dylan) all that they need. When a family secret is uncovered, Reese feels betrayed, and alone, and is faced with a decision, to take what her mother wanted for her, or to stay in a predestined life that’s not nearly as exciting as the unknown.
