Best friends since high school, Kim and Amy haven’t seen each other since Amy moved to the West Coast for grad school. The two reunite when they join a group of friends at a lake house with Kim’s boyfriend, Jay.

When Amy left for the West Coast, she was in love with Jay, though she never pursued it, due to her insecurities thinking she was too fat and ugly. While she has changed physically, her feelings for Jay have not, and the reunion has brought the feelings back to the surface.
