Have the sins of the mother come upon the daughter? Jasmine Larson Bush is finally living a drama-free life.

She’s left her lying, cheating, stealing stripper days behind and is standing by her husband’s side as the first lady of one of the largest churches in New York City. The Bushes have been blessed with the best of everything including two lovely children.

But just when Jasmine has committed her life completely to God, her daughter Jacqueline is kidnapped from a mall the day after Thanksgiving. Police and the church community join in the frantic search to find the four-year-old.

As the days pass without any sign of her daughter, Jasmine begins to crack under the strain and turns to Brian Lewis, Jacqueline’s biological father, for solace.

Has Jasmine’s past finally caught up to her?

Will her daughter be found or will Jasmine pay the ultimate price?
