Scott and Gaby shared one very special night. Not wanting to ruin their
friendship, they didn't take things further...but neither of them has
forgotten.
When Scott’s friends stage an intervention to
make him realize that his fiancé, Victoria, is all wrong for him, he takes time
to evaluate his life. He’s earned a big promotion and just bought his dream
car, but those things are just superficial. The one time he was truly happy,
was with Gaby.
Gaby is in a good place in her life. She loves
her job, has the best friends and family a girl could ask for, and is dating a
sweet and sexy guy, but she’s never stopped thinking about that night with
Scott.
Eager to find happiness again, Scott makes a
plan to win Gaby’s heart during a weekend getaway, but she doesn’t want to be
his rebound girl. Will 42 hours be enough to convince Gaby that it's finally
their time for love?
