Mrs. Robinson, meet Holden Caulfield-if Holden were a smart, sexy teenage lesbian in love with her mother's best friend. For Candace "Ace" Ragsdale, Mrs. Forest is an irresistible force of nature: luscious, tantalizing-and maybe not completely out of reach. No one in her family is moored to social convention-but they've each learned to surf the wave of the unfamiliar and make the most of chaos. From Ace's womanizing-yet-worshipful brother to her elusive-yet-loving parents, we watch this well-meaning family weave its way into a rich tapestry of townspeople, often to comic effect. The backdrop is the Massachusetts seaside town of Horton, cut off from the world. On the surface, boats sway on their moorings, while below bubbles a primal brew of salt and sea life-much like the Ragsdales, a decidedly modern family whose humor and goodwill skim breezily above an ocean of smoldering emotions. Into this infinite chaos careens a rebel grandmother who shows up to help the family save the town windmill, whose mysterious energy whips up the coastal disturbances of a changing world. As this spectacle of public conflict and private anguish unfolds, we're fully on Ace's side as she pilots the turbulent waters of love, sex, and traditionally non-traditional small-town values.
