Twenty-four-year old Nikki Grant likes to be in control. She's emotionally detached from everyone except her mother and micromanages everyone else's role in her life. She's focused and determined to be a successful businesswoman, and that focus only intensifies when a summons to a law firm on the eve of graduating with her MBA reveals that her late grandmother left her a good deal of money, a newly renovated candy factory, and a quest to reestablish the family's legacy as a candy manufacture. Sixteen-year-old Karen Edwards is an introvert with attitude that comes off like she hates the world and everyone in it. She's had a few run-ins with the law and now the only thing saving her from a long vacation at a juvenile detention center is participating in a youth mentoring and leadership/work program for a year without getting into trouble. But getting a job through the program and staying out of trouble turns out to be the least of Karen's worries. She has her hands full trying to escape the long shadow of a dark childhood. As fate would have it, the mentoring and work program brings Karen and Nikki together at the upstart Grant Candy Company. What starts off as a rocky employer/employee relationship blossoms into a friendship that drastically alters both of their lives in ways they never would have imagined possible.
