Description: Natasha is a successful young woman who works for one of Atlanta's most prosperous marketing firms, Emerson & Stuckey. Sloan Stevens is an ambitious young man working his way up the corporate ladder in the same firm. Friends since third grade, Natasha and Sloan contend that they're just friends, although the closest to them suspect that they secretly harbor feelings for each other that run deeper than mere friendship. They are determined to prove that their suspicions are false by finding true loves of their own. After leaving a string of unsuccessful relationships in their wake, the opportunity for true love for each of them presents itself in the form of two new coworkers, Essence Kirkland and Derrick Perkins. But when Essence and Derrick turn up the heat in each of the relationships, things threaten to boil over and turn true friends into enemies. Will the pursuit of happiness be a recipe for true love between friends, or a poisoned dish that will cost one of them their very life?
