JT Tucker built the biggest ranch in California through sheer determination after moving from Texas with his three young daughters. When he dies suddenly at 64, Caroline, Gemma, and Kate must face life without the domineering man who shaped them in vastly different ways. Caroline, the youngest, escaped to Marin County to write and raise a family after years of being ignored. Gemma became his favorite and parlayed that confidence into television stardom in Hollywood. Kate sacrificed her own dreams to work the ranch alongside him, earning neither gratitude nor recognition. As the sisters sort through JT's estate, documents surface that shatter everything they believed about their father. The revelations force each woman to confront not only who he really was, but who they have become because of him. Together, they must rebuild their understanding of their family and forge new relationships with each other.
