In a soul-searching bid to find new challenges and meaning in her life, she signs on for a course in Mandarin Chinese. Matthew is also a patent lawyer but in a rival firm. A widower, who is White, raising a three-year-old alone, he cannot imagine a future with love and family until one day, he meets Jennifer in the Mandarin course. The two bond while exploring their shared interest and talent in Mandarin language studies. Although they come from different racial backgrounds, they find that they have a lot in common, particularly their love of Matthew's daughter Madison.

Will they overcome the challenges of this lifetime to be together again?

You will cheer for Jennifer and Matthew and join Madison in wanting them all to share their lives together."
