Ghanian-American Angela Appiah has checked off all the boxes for the Perfect Immigrant Daughter:
- enrol in an elite medical school
- snag a suitable lawyer/doctor/engineer boyfriend
- surround self with a gaggle of successful and/or loyal friends
But then she bombs the most important exam of her medical career and her boyfriend dumps her. Her parents, whose approval seems to hinge on how closely she follows the path they chose for her, are suddenly a lot less proud of their daughter than they were when things were going according to plan... It's a quarter-life crisis of epic proportions. And just when things couldn't get more complicated, enter Ricky Gutierrez - brilliant, thoughtful, sexy, and most importantly, seems to see Angie for who she is instead of what she can represent. Unfortunately, Ricky also has wasteman practically tattooed across his forehead, and Angie's done chasing mirages of perfect men. Or so she thinks. For someone who has always been in control, Angie realises that there's one thing she can't plan for: matters of her heart.
