First, there is the perfectionist radio producer whose flawless life collapses when she discovers her manipulative husband has a lover. Then there is the outspoken radio host left speechless when her husband gets another woman pregnant. Finally, the radio writer must cope with a husband whose midlife crisis leads him to fall in love with an actress, but she will get revenge in finding love after their divorce. Despite the chaos caused by betrayal, all three women discover new truths about themselves and each other, forming a bond that reinvigorates their spirits and transforms their lives.
