Anita and Bunny have been friends since high school, when Anita was
a beauty queen runner-up and Bunny a sweet single mother of no more

seems increasingly difficult, the friends turn to one another and
find reserves of love and strength that help heal the wounds they
inadvertently inflict upon each other.
