Jo Ann Davis and Robert Hart are lonely, middle-aged people, putting up with the cards life has dealt them. At 51, she's tired of the shortage of black men suitable for an upwardly mobile professional, black woman. A 63-year-old white man, he's been widowed and alone for eight years, but he's far from done with love or career. A chance meeting between Jo Ann and Robert one day in May brings them together for a year-long, head-spinning adventure. By the time it's all said and done, she'll be set up to run a Fortune 1000 company, he'll be on his way to becoming a multi-millionaire, and they'll have totally new lives - after foiling a plot that might have destroyed their family and business lives.
