“Just because it is in Malibu's nature to burn, so was it in one particular person's nature to set fire and walk away.”
I loved this one. This one just absolutely spoke to my soul. As parents, we mess up. Man oh man, if only there were a manual. But there isn't so we all mess up. This is the story about some kids who grew up - it's 4 of them: Nina, Hud, Jay and Kit. Their mom helped raise them - and you learn her story through out the first half.
