Amanda, a Manhattan-based event planner, is juggling two major problems: mounting debt and romantic trouble. Her ex-boyfriend left her buried under financial obligations, and now she faces the real possibility of being evicted from her luxury Park Avenue apartment unless she works tirelessly to stay afloat. Enter Alex, a strikingly handsome and highly capable lawyer she recently met, who has asked her out on multiple occasions. Though she feels a flutter of excitement around the charismatic playboy, Amanda knows she simply cannot afford to date him—financially or emotionally. Still nursing old wounds, she is determined not to let herself be hurt again.
