Lexie is a zesty, beautiful marketing executive enjoying the perks of her recent promotion. At first glance she seems to have it all. In reality she's struggling to keep it all together. When she meets Brian on a business trip shortly after finding her lover in the arms of another woman, it’s clearly not the time to start a new relationship. Brian is a handsome, hardworking gentleman with his own technology consulting business. With a lot of charisma and some early indications that he knows how to treat a woman well, he may turn out to be the man Lexie needs in her life--even if his ex will stop at nothing to have him for herself.
