What will happen when the mysterious woman from across the street offers her the deal of a lifetime?
Noa Andrews is the CEO of Andrews LLC, an internationally recognized law firm that represents underprivileged women.

Only those close to Noa know that she only has one obsession - red jelly beans. What happens when the bookstore across the street from her law firm is transformed into a candy store?
Noa has been smitten with Gracie ever since she handed her a bag full of cherry red jelly jeans - yep, ONLY red. When Noa is forced to marry someone for press reasons, she can't imagine herself with anyone else. Gracie however, is convinced that Noa hates her but is also facing struggles of her own -she can't find an affordable apartment that allows her miniature Weiner dog, Richard.
Somewhere in the midst of their charade, the lines between friendship and something more start to blur.
When a devastating loss hits Gracie like a train wreck, will it bring her and Noa closer or push them further apart than ever?
Just a cute story about a gay couple with a weiner dog named Dick :)
