For the Groves, one of the citys most prominent families, and particularly Bezellia, uniquely named for a fiery ancestor, its especially difficult. Bezellia is closer to the familys black servants, her nanny, Maizelle, and the handyman, Nathaniel, than she is to her alcoholic mother and her distant, inaccessible father. When Bezellia has a clandestine affair with Nathaniels son Samuel, their romance is met with anger and fear from both families. In a time and place where rebelling against the rules carries a steep price, Bezellia Grove must decide which of her names will be the one that defines her.n
