Devastated, Paris must navigate the painful aftermath of her husband's departure, grappling with her lingering love for him and the well-meaning but misguided attempts of friends to set her up with unsuitable men. As she faces the emotional turmoil of her new reality, Paris realizes she must fight for her survival. With her therapist's encouragement, she decides to move to San Francisco after Peter remarries. In this new city, she encounters a dating scene filled with men who are either too young, too old, too married, or simply not right for her. Her experiences range from disappointing to disastrous, and as her daughter becomes engaged to a man her age, Paris begins to believe that romance may not be in her future. However, her offbeat circle of friends becomes a vital support system, helping her navigate this challenging phase of life. Ultimately, Paris learns to embrace the unexpected twists and turns of life, discovering that the key lies in transforming despair into freedom and loss into joy.
