Deon Lock is Chicago's most eligible bachelor. He's owner to a multi-million dollar watch making company; The Fountain City Watches. At the age of 28, Deon is tired of living life as a player. He's done it all before, hooked up, fell in love, broke up, made up, and started it all over again. He's too old for these childish games; he wants to leave his past behind and just be himself, but the funny thing is, his past always has a way of catching up to him. One more night was what he promised himself. One more night before he decided to give it all up.
25 year old Sheri is tired of being led on and ignored by men. She's so used to the rejection, she doesn't even like going out with her friends anymore. What's the point? They're skinnier, prettier, more out going than her anyway; she'd just get lost in their shadows. One night was all she wanted. One night was all she needed to remind herself that she was still beautiful. She wouldn't let anything get in the way of her fun, except being excluded from the VIP section.
Could he really give up the life style every man wanted? Could one more night really be the end? Would one night really change anything for her? Could she really fool herself into believing this night is the start of a new beginning?
