Love is the last item on Lisa's agenda on the track to a carefree life: Juggling kids, work and the fact that she has no family support in a country she loves, but doesn't call home. That is, until Tom enters her life with the prospect of a no-strings attached affair while on business in Sydney. Running a successful enterprise and without family commitments, Tom is everything Lisa is not. He brings the uncertainty back into her life and the tears she has sworn to not ever shed over a man again. But while Lisa is struggling coming to terms with a short-lived romance, Tom has his own demons to fight.
