Stephanie doesn't give second chances. Has she finally met someone to change her mind?
------------------------------------------------------
Stephanie Halder thinks she has it all; the successful boyfriend about to propose, the beautiful downtown condo, and hopefully soon, her dream job. But none of that is on her mind when she's stuck in an elevator for hours with a stranger, and all she can think about is not peeing herself in front of him.
When the life she thought she was building crumbles around her over the course of a half-eaten steak dinner, Stephanie starts over, looking for happiness in the exact opposite places she did before.
