      Dopo anni trascorsi a mettere da parte la carriera per crescere da sola la figlia, Holly ha finalmente la sua occasione di riscatto: viene promossa e ottiene il posto di supervisore alle sceneggiature. Sa bene che gli equilibri in ufficio cambieranno ora che è il capo, ma sa anche di poter contare su un'alleata preziosa: Roz. Più che una collega, Roz è un'anima affine: passano gran parte della giornata insieme, non sopportano le stesse persone e si confidano qualunque segreto. Chi più di Roz potrebbe essere felice per lei? Eppure, con il passare dei giorni, Holly comincia a notare strani comportamenti nella sua amica e a essere oggetto di svariati tentativi di sabotaggio per metterla in cattiva luce. Tra e-mail imbarazzanti mai inviate, appuntamenti cancellati e riunioni disastrose, inizia una guerra a suon di pettegolezzi e colpi bassi. E se ad averla scatenata fosse proprio il nemico più insospettabile?

For the half week he spends in the country, she looks after him, helping him get over his "acrimonious divorce" and waiting for the day he'll stay with her full time. And James loves having it all: witty wife and doting girlfriend. Then Stephanie and Katie find out about each other and discover they've both been duped. Deciding that James deserves everything he has coming, they set out to embarrass and ruin him. But in discovering the truth about James, they also learn a few things about themselves.
