Carly Watts, thirty-eight, has been with Henry Rose for four years and wants desperately to be in love with him but despite all his goodness, his looks, his pure heartedness, and, as hard as she tries, she cannot be, until a friend of hers gives her an address of a clinic that may help her fall in love.
Not long after Carly meets Michael, a tall good-looking accountant who instantly falls in love with her. She cannot resist him and after only one meeting he becomes her lover.
Carly is racked with guilt and desperate to stay with Henry, and, although skeptical, goes to the clinic. It works beautifully. After only two visits she believes she has fallen in love with Henry again.
Henry sits in his home in misery. Just lately it has set in his heart that Carly is not in love with him, confirmed recently by her refusal to move in with him. Alone in his lounge-room one night he recalls the memory of an old relationship, Sally, and rings her spontaneously. It is the start of a new friendship. They both soon realize their original passion is still there and unaffected by the passage of time.
Carly is devastated to find out that, after all these years, finally loving Henry the way she wanted, he may no longer be in love with her. And, to make it worse, Michael has become obsessive toward her and she must do all she can to avoid him.
And Sally too must contemplate her future. Henry is the love of her life. She has told him that. But with Carly in the way, she can only dream.
Then tragedy strikes all four.
