Gabby's life is on hold. She’s broke, aimless, living with her mother, and working out of her old high school bedroom as a phone sex operator. Then she gets a call from Martin who is out for more than just arousal; he is looking for a connection. He charms Gabby with his self-effacing wit, and jokes about his glamorous life as a Hollywood sci-fi screenwriter.
Since he lives in the same city as Gabby’s estranged and successful sister, Esther, impulsive Gabby spontaneously decide to fly to Los Angeles and drop in on her unsuspecting sister and meet up with the man of her dreams. But she soon learns in the City of Angels, things are more complicated than they appear.
