Being left at the altar is the reason why Valentine Clarke wakes up in bed with a stranger the day after she was supposed to say 'I do' to who she believed was the man of her dreams.

Carter Hayes finds out his wife of five years is cheating on him, and the baby she's carrying isn't his. He finds himself drinking his sorrows away and meets the equally miserable Valentine.

They instantly connect with their broken hearts, but are too scared to move forward. Just how long will it last when everything seems so good?
