Cannie is a ‘larger woman’ and the whole freaking world knows it because her ex-boyfriend Bruce explained her body so fully in his column for the Moxie magazine.
Cannie just wanted a little break in her relationship with Bruce, but he seems to have moved on. Cannie is miserable. This is not how she imagened her break-up to end.
But Cannie is a fighter and wants to make the best of it. So she signs in for a test at the hospital with an experimental drug to help her lose spare pounds…and sits at home waiting for Bruce to call…not pathetic at all, right?
When Bruce’s father dies they see, and especially feel, each other, what later proved to be the last time, at his parent’s house. And from that moment on Cannie’s life does a 180.
Will she continue the be brave, will she keep going to the hospital and will she really get over Bruce?

Two sisters: Rose, the dependable one, and Maggie, the free spirit. It seems the only thing they have in common is their shoe size and their taste in shoes.
When Maggie is in trouble (again, I might add) and Rose is, again, the one who can pick up the pieces, their relationship is really stretched to its limit. Maggie showing no respect to her sister and her way of life, really goes too far when she is caught in her sisters bed with her sisters boyfriend. Rose now completely loses it and throws Maggie out. Out, to never ever come back.
And that is the moment both their lives completely change. Maggie learns from her long lost grandmother Ella what it means to respect people and not just use them. Rose learns that there is more to life than work as a lawyer and that there are nice men who want to be with her.
After some time both sisters are doing fine by themselves, but will they ever reconcile?
