Description

Long simmering chemistry is released when a hurricane forces two exes to weather the storm in a house they used to share.

Hot shot DC lawyer Meena is about to get engaged to the perfect man. The only hitch? She is already married...

Which is why she ends up travelling home to convince her first-love-slash-husband (courtesy of one slightly too wild night in Vegas nearly a decade ago) to finally agree to get UN-hitched.

But life loves to throw curve balls, or in this case, a good old natural disaster. Meena touches down just in time to find out a hurricane is hitting Houston - all flights are cancelled and the only place she can take refuge? Her soon-to-be-ex-husband's home.

Will the storm force them to face what happened all those years ago? And might this be the best worst thing that has ever happened to them?
