Dimple Pennington knew of her half siblings, but she didn’t really know them.
Five people who don’t have anything in common except for faint memories of being driven through Brixton in their dad’s gold jeep, and some pretty complex abandonment issues.
Dimple has bigger things to think about. She’s thirty, and her life isn’t really going anywhere.
An aspiring lifestyle influencer with a terrible and wayward boyfriend, Dimple’s life has shrunk to the size of a phone screen.
And despite a small but loyal following, she’s never felt more alone in her life.
That is, until a dramatic event brings her half siblings Nikisha, Danny, Lizzie and Prynce crashing back into her life.
And when they’re all forced to reconnect with Cyril Pennington, the absent father they never really knew, things get even more complicated.
