If Ethan Hawk, New York's best attorney wants something he gets it. He invites Nova to play his girlfriend but he never expected a crazy trail with a savage donkey, a kiss almost drowning him and having to save his client's company from a takeover.

It's a catch 22 when things go a little wrong in a week's time and Ethan doesn't know which way out. Suddenly when their paths collided again, it collided with a bang.

Dawn Carmichael found Max Brown busy having sex on her couch one night, which began their fiery relationship. The next time they met he laughed at her.

As much as she wanted to hate the man, she just couldn't, his charm persuaded her every time. What's a girl to do when she's attracted to her new roommate?

Things that always seemed slightly askew show a clearer path. Dawn's left to wonder whether she can live with the annoying charisma of Max Brown, or if it will be the end of her.
