She’s a go-getter who knows what she wants and what she wants is Richard Cartwright Jr. Infatuation ignites and sparks fly when she accompanies her best friend to a family game night where he is in attendance. In spite of warnings that she had her work cut out for her, Niecy sets her sights on the oldest of the Cartwright brothers, who happens to be ten years her senior.

With a swirl of new emotions forged as she gets to know him, she is taken aback when he tells her he just wants to be friends. Will she be able to keep their relationship strictly platonic or is she already too involved?
