|---|
"Delilah Levine is a part-time soap opera writer, whose husband, Jason, has taken to yelling at her when he's not simply ignoring her. Her only joys are her daughter, Sadie, and the elaborate fantasies that she has about her plumber, Ford. Jason is a corporate lawyer, in charge of a new product, an aphrodesiac called Biosensual. However, the drug is known to have some strange side affects. When Delilah accidently sends her new soap opera script with some of Jason's notes on the back, the television station thinks that Delilah is proposing a plot about Biosensual. Delilah lets them go ahead, thinking that this will be good publicity for Jason, but when he learns about what Delilah has done, he is furious. Then attempts on Delilah's life begin. Delilah learns that Ford is not a plumber at all, but rather an FBI agent sent undercover to investigate Jason. As Delilah and Ford grow closer, their mutual attraction reaches a point where it cannot be ignored. But before they can be together, Delilah and Ford must learn what Jason is up to and who is trying to kill her."
