Daphne is fiery and fabulous. She just needs to get out and meet people. But when an accident brings a teen dad, an empty nester and a has-been actor into her world, they aren't necessarily who she'd had in mind. And it soon becomes clear that they all have a story to tell.

But can these new friendships survive the secrets that will be revealed?
