In the four years since Penelope and Michael separated, everything has changed.
For Penelope, life is damned fantastic
Having been the main breadwinner, the housekeeper and the finance manager for their entire relationship, Penelope has moved on with her life, and her hot, twenty-five-year-old lover, Alexander, the DJ.
Michael is not faring as well. He is haunted by his failed writing career, his finances are a catastrophe and ... he is still completely and utterly in love with his ex.
When the situation with Michael's finances finally come to a head, he asks Penelope if he can stay with her a while. She eventually agrees and the weeks that follow see them reflecting on their past and their present, and where it all fell apart.
With the help of her Friday night drinking pals, Penelope is driven to ask herself the question--how many chances do you give the one you love?
