Maggie Walsh voit le ciel pluvieux de Dublin lui tomber sur la tête quand elle apprend, le même jour, son licenciement et l'infidélité de son mari. Sa petite vie qu'elle croyait parfaite tourne au désastre. Une solution : la fuite ! Maggie s'envole pour Los Angeles, chez sa meilleure amie, Emily, scénariste en mal de réussite.

Pourtant, dans ce tourbillon superficiel, Maggie va comprendre que le passé finit toujours par vous rattraper.
