The men in Emily Jones' life haven't been all that great. First there's her ex-husband, whose perverse efforts to belittle her have succeeded in making her doubt herself at every turn. Then, there's her pathological neighbor who's hell-bent on making her pay for having interfered in his family dynamic, when she was only trying to help. And rounding out the list, there's her pathetic boss. Admittedly, he's amazing in one respect: he can actually stand up straight when there's no evidence at all that he has a backbone. In spite of Emily's warnings to the contrary, her boss is too besotted by the new addition to his staff to get a clue about the trouble brewing under his nose. Emily has to go it alone to unravel the intricacies of dire plots hatched by angry students. But, things might be looking up. Two doors down from her cookie-cutter condo, a handsome new occupant has moved in. Although she likes to be in control, and this has always stood her in good stead on the job, she now feels great delight and satisfaction in letting some of that control slip blissfully from her grasp into his.
