A failed engagement and a new job have led 36-year-old Chaney Braxton from New York to Washington. Orphaned as a child and now betrayed by her fiance, Chaney has a new mew mantra: no plants, no pets, no men. Until she meets charming half-Korean veterinarian Devin Rhym courtesy of a dog-sitting gig she didn't even want. Devin is 28, eight years her junior and definitely not what Chaney was looking for when she moved. But the attraction proves irresistible and as their relationship blossoms, the unlikely lovers are forced to find solutions - and themselves.
