 Cassie is a disgraced lawyer that takes a temp position to get by. When some emails of one of the lawyers and their wife pop up in the investigation she is doing Cassie finds herself obsessed. Cassie can't take another scandal, but she can't help being pulled further into her obsession. She sees a future with Forrest that she couldn't have imagined before him. She knows if she can just become more like his wife she can finally have the life with him she's always dreamed of.

The main character is like a train wreck. You can't help, but keep turning the pages. The second-hand embarrassment is real. She is like a druken mess version of Joe from You.
