ABOUT CAMPFIRE CONFESSIONS: 

Married to a minister in a small town, Annie’s devoted her life to raising four sons and volunteering wherever she’s needed. Most people consider her a saint—but they don’t know she’s hiding a big secret.

Sondra’s married to one of the richest men in L.A. and she appears to have it all—a glitzy lifestyle, beauty, brains, and a successful career. But when a real estate deal blooms into an affair, she quickly realizes she’s in over her head.

Jo is four years sober and struggling through a divorce. After a one-night stand, she’s forced to reckon with a lifetime of bad choices.

When Annie’s secret finally catches up with her, Jo and Sondra rush to her side. 

Determined to find answers, they pry Annie away from her daily grind, escaping on a canoeing trip that turns into a soul-searching, death-defying adventure. 

Lost in the woods as one thing goes wrong after another, they find themselves sharing their deepest secrets around the campfire. 

But as each new revelation unfolds, one thing becomes clear: it will take more than a night of true confessions for the three of them to find their way back home.
