How did Emma's life become nothing but a frantic race through the daily grind? Between her job, her two daughters, and her ex-husband—who is still irresistible but unreliable—this adorable woman in her forties is completely overwhelmed... To the point where she has neither the time nor the desire to rebuild her life as a woman, despite the gentle pressure from those around her.
Until Blanche, her older daughter in the throes of a teenage rebellion, gets involved too: she’s sick and tired of her mom always breathing down her neck and constantly on the verge of a nervous breakdown...
She needs to leave him alone and get on with her own life! So Emma tentatively tries her hand at online dating sites. Unfortunately, just to get some real peace and quiet, Blanche—with the help of Zac, her very young and all-too-charming tutor—invents a fake online boyfriend for her... Dazzled by their supposed compatibility, Emma quickly falls head over heels for him. ... The misunderstanding takes hold—and it’s no longer just virtual!
