"We need to resist the tyranny of low expectations and open our eyes to the inequality that remains." Sheryl Sandberg

Sofia Casas has a wonderful life-- a handsome, well-respected husband who loves his family, two talented and likable children, and permanent space in a prestigious gallery. It isn't enough.

Tired of being seen as the wallpaper of her family's lives, Sofia flees Salamanca, Spain, to Valencia, where she begins a series of letters explaining her frustration and challenging her husband and children to do better. When her letters go unanswered, Sofia changes her identity, moves to the United States, and restarts her career as a photographer.

Success comes but at a price. Jerez Santiago, her new persona, might be bolder and far more outgoing than the Sofia who fled Spain, but she's equally lonely until two men, one a gallery owner, the other an art critic, offer her what she craves--deep affection and respect. Then, unexpectedly, her husband reenters her life.
