Superstar chef Amanda Byrd had it all -- a loving husband, two beautiful kids, and a critically-acclaimed restaurant -- until her epic meltdowns caused her marriage to implode. After a humiliating year of therapy and eating crow, her husband Mike has agreed to take her back, as long as she continues to keep her inner diva in check.
AmandaтАЩs guilty secret: during that year of separation, she had an affair with the talented young chef, Noah, who worked in the hotel where she stayed after Mike kicked her out. Nothing serious, just a fling that she broke off as soon as Mike let her come home.
But her indiscretion comes back to haunt her when a Hollywood power couple offers Amanda her own cooking show -- with Noah as one of the cohosts. Her unsuspecting husband demands she say yes: Mike resents that AmandaтАЩs restaurant doesnтАЩt bring in what it used to, and private school for two kids isnтАЩt cheap.
ItтАЩs soon clear that Noah hasnтАЩt given up on luring Amanda back into his bed. HeтАЩs willing to destroy anything that stands between them: her family, her reputation, her career тАж and maybe her sanity.
