After the death of his wife, Texas ranch hand JT Tucker took his three small daughters to California to start a new life. With almost no money, a will of iron, and hard work, he eventually built the biggest ranch in California. Caroline, the youngest, was overlooked by her father for her entire life and fled to become a wife, mother, and writer in Marin County. Gemma, his declared favorite, sought out Hollywood glamour and success and became a major television star. Kate, the eldest, stayed at home to do her father's bidding as a ranch hand, forsaking a family of her own. Upon JT's death their world is turned upside down, strengthening their relationships with one another and discovering who they are now as grown women. -- adapted from jacket
