24 year old Aaron still lives with his parents and has yet to find work since leaving university; and now his ex-girlfriend Phoebe is marrying his brother Tom, which increases his depression as his family pressures him to move on from his heartbreak faster than he is able to. Julie is 44 and married with two children but her marriage to Michael has gone stale since he pays little to no attention to her as a woman. She works in a four star country hotel, specialising in wedding receptions-- giving her peeks into "romance" lacking in her life now. Here she meets Aaron, drunk and miserable at Tom's wedding and gives him an empathising ear and experienced advice. He is grateful to her and soon finds himself getting a job in the same hotel she works in and soon their chemistry filled interactions turns to a moment of passion.
