But then she discovers the joys of platonic friendship with childhood friend Dan. It never occurs to her he might be on a different page. So, just when life is finally looking up, an unexpected event draws her into a familiar cycle of anxiety and not knowing who to trust. Before she knows it, she’s facing a crisis of conscience.
