When it comes to a real friendship, Kayla, Evelyn, and Trina have one last opportunity to get it right. If only for a short period, they appear to be on the same path and willing to put their chaotic past behind them. Evelyn's near-death experience has everyone embracing her, even Kayla's ex-husband Cedric, who uses his wealth and power to get whatever his heart desires.

Kayla thought that her best friends, Evelyn and Trina, were supposed to always have her back, but when she discovers that Evelyn has been creeping with her husband, Cedric, and Trina has known about the ongoing affair for quite some time, Kayla is ready to cut ties and leave her so-called friends behind. Their actions have shown how scheming they truly are. Meanwhile Cedric lies in a hospital bed, clinging to life. He may not be able to utilize his joystick for a while, but his millions are still in play, and Evelyn wants them.

Kayla, Evelyn, and Trina have been on-and-off-again girlfriends for many years, but the lines of true friendship will be crossed, the knives that go into another friend's back will cut deep, trust will not apply, and no one will share their dirty little secrets.

Much competition is thrown in the mix, and jealousy is so thick that there will be no place for anyone to run when the mess hits the fan.

Novembre 1982. Tutto ebbe inizio con quel film, Il Poeta Scozzese. La vita di Lorenzo Bisetti, studente di violino presso il Conservatorio G. Verdi di Milano, da quella pellicola non fu più la stessa. Il primo viaggio del 1985 in terra californiana aprì una breccia "americana" nella sua anima: ma il successivo viaggio del 16 Marzo 1986 ne decretò la finale metamorfosi. Hollywood scardinò definitivamente l'equilibrio della sua giovane, già "instabile", esistenza, ma fu l'amore, o forse meglio la morte dell'amore, ad infliggergli una severa sentenza... eterna.
