Jean is married to her job and there is no room in her life for romance. Until she meets someone who takes her breath away.

There's just one catch. Ava's a woman. And Jean's straight isn't she?

The chemistry's scorching but there's no place for Ava in Jean's world. But free-spirited Ava is irresistible. And open to a purely physical relationship. This way Jean gets to have her cake and eat it too.

Yet spending time with Ava makes Jean question everything she thought she knew.

Is it time to start again?
