Overnight, 36-year-old Laurie finds herself facing the shards of her happiness: her great love Dan has broken up with her to find himself – and he has already found someone new. As if that weren't bad enough, the new woman is soon pregnant with Dan's child, despite him having dismissed Laurie's desire for children for years.

The fact that Dan and Laurie work at the same law firm and their colleagues soon have no other topic of conversation than the breakup of the once picture-perfect couple makes things even harder for Laurie.

Or is it?
