Although they never marry, when Lisa breaks it off because Windy reveals herself to be a deadbeat, Windy seeks revenge by filing for custody of Lisa’s daughter. To make things even more interesting, Windy falls for the enchanting Ruby Mae Baker and, while at her lowest point, Lisa becomes acquainted with the sexy, intrepid reporter Jenna Richards. As the custody battle heats up, the burning question becomes: how far will Lisa go to protect her child?
