Genevieve Ukaji is a successful banker still single at thirty-seven-years-old. Her mother continues to remind her to find a husband. Her colleagues gossip about her behind her back, and to make matters worse, she wakes up one morning in a stranger's bed.

Regardless, she decided to push the experience to the back of her mind until the stranger unexpectedly walks into her parents' home, and she realises the big age difference between them.

Genevieve is too ashamed and embarrassed of herself. She wants nothing to do with him, but it's not the same for the cute stranger. He tries his hardest to bring her out of her shell.

Amidst all this, Genevieve finds out she's expecting. For the first time in her life, she would have to decide if this glimmer of happiness is enough to face the fear of what others might say about her.

The Right Girl. When we'd realized that he had fallen in love with the main character, we all became happy about the turn of events. Just cause we'd been shipping both of them for a very long time. No one wanted him to be with The Wrong Girl, cause she was either too perfect, had a nasty character or treated everyone like trash. We all enjoyed the boy and The Right Girl new found relationship, and totally forgot that he was in a different relationship not too long ago. No one thought about The Wrong Girl, or how her life would be like after the break up. No one thought if she'd actually get into a new relationship, or stayed single for the rest of her life. I was guilty as charged, until Alex my boyfriend, decided to kiss The Right Girl in front of our secondary school and left me The Wrong Girl, to be the laughing stock to the entire students of Blossom High. • • • Eno had been the most popular girl at Blossom High School.
