As ‘the other woman’ in her colleague’s relationship, Iris is devastated to find her lover is engaged, while Amanda is left alone at Christmas after throwing her boyfriend Ethan out the house for cheating.
Eventually, the women find new romances and relationships in their temporary house swaps, bringing the two strangers together in a way they never expected.
Iris falls for Amanda's close friend Miles, while Amanda hooks up with Iris' widowed brother Graham after he crashes at her cottage one evening.
Their story is set to continue in a sequel filmed next year.
