Casey has tried everything from celibacy to candlelight dinners to get her feelings back on track, but it's just not that simple...

As the unlikely roommates' predicament gets thorny and the sexual politics within their tight group of mutual friends gets heated, Casey learns just how far she's willing to go to hold onto a man--and a dream...
