Meghan Tilley is the well-mannered daughter of a prominent Catholic family. On the surface, she leads a charmed life and seems to have it all - a popular husband, a successful career, impeccable style, and a trustworthiness that draws people in. However, beneath the happy facade lie countless dark secrets that threaten to expose her carefully crafted American dream. Despite her projection of quiet confidence, Meghan is plagued by a deep-seated insecurity that drives her to covet the affection of married men and to tear families apart. Battling inner demons, she avoids the haunting question of why she can't find satisfaction in a relationship with the man she has. Despite best efforts to resist destructive impulses, Meghan finds herself trapped in a vicious cycle of manipulation and deceit bringing only temporary fulfillment, even as the emptiness inside her grows deeper with each stolen moment of passion.
