  Anna lives with Oliver Robinson and their 3-year-old son Charlie. They met when she worked as a waitress at his restaurant; he had recently separated and she was a shoulder to cry on. But friendship turned to love. Now she juggles motherhood with part-time work and she couldn't be happier. Or perhaps she could? Oliver has never divorced his first wife Eve who is everything Anna is not. Eve insists on making herself part of their lives and her demands soak up much of their time and income. Anna understands that Oliver needs to support his two teenage children, but why should they keep Eve too? The situation looks set to grumble on indefinitely unless someone or something shakes it up. And something does - it's called Fate. Oliver is killed in a car crash, leaving both women shattered. How will they react to this appalling tragedy? Will it drive them further apart, or force them to cut their losses and pull together for the sake of their children and their futures?

  Anna lives with Oliver Robinson and their 3-year-old son Charlie. But Oliver is still married to his first wife Eve, mother of his two teenage children. Eve is a dominant figure who insists on making her presence felt; Anna is young and beautiful, with a bright future. Each woman is weary of the other, insecure and jealous about the relationship Oliver has with the other. Petty squabbles about the division of Oliver's time and money drag on indefinitely until a terrible tragedy leaves both women shattered. Forced to pull together through their shared loss, can they put their differences aside to emerge from the adversity?
