Gizelle’s reputation is called into question by Potomac's queen bee, Karen, and its self-appointed social director, Charrisse. Will they be able to play nice, or are these domestic divas going to take off their white gloves and get dirty? Katie has to tap into her Jewish roots to prove herself a true member of the tribe for her twins' naming ceremony. Things get a little dicey when the ladies meet the young, boisterous beauty queen Ashley Darby. Will Ashley be able to break into this coveted circle of sophisticated women?

Synopsis

Just up the river from our nation’s capital lies a hidden gem—Potomac, Maryland. Its rolling hills, gated mansions, sophisticated prep schools, and exclusive country clubs all serve to keep the area invitation-only. Sprinkled throughout this community are a handful of old-line, wealthy African-American families who have historically broken racial barriers to provide a life of privilege for their children. In a town where entry is granted only through class, pedigree, and lineage, how far will the ladies go to secure their spot at the top of this prestigious circle?
