Si sono conosciuti al liceo. Blair, timida e scontrosa, era molto diversa dalle ragazze che circondavano lui, Luke, il classico buon partito, bello, ricco e destinato al successo. A distanza di molti anni Blair è una single di mezza età, ha sempre lo stesso carattere, è sempre una bella donna, con molti amici-amanti, ma rifiuta legami fissi. L'unico suo punto fermo è Amanda, la figlia adolescente. Luke è uno degli sceneggiatori più famosi d'America, ha avuto tutto eppure sente che gli manca qualcosa. Quando per caso rivede Blair, capisce di aver trovato quel qualcosa, ma lei sa che non c'è più spazio nella sua vita per la passione. Com'è possibile innamorarsi davvero, proprio ora che sta cercando di dire addio alla vita?
