Black girls must die exhausted," 33-year-old Tabitha Walker's grandmother has said. Of course, her grandmother (who happens to be white) was referring to the 1950's and what she observed in the nascent times of civil rights. With a coveted position as a local news reporter, Marc (a "paper-perfect" boyfriend), and a standing Saturday morning appointment with a reliable hairstylist, Tabitha never imagined this phrase could apply to her - until everything changed. An unexpected doctor's diagnosis awakens Tabitha to an unperceived culprit, threatening her dream of having a family of her own. With the help of her best friends, Tabitha must explore the reaches of modern medicine and test the limits of her relationships to beat the ticking clock on her dreams of becoming a wife and mother.
