On the one hand, Carly Cooper is lots of things: a former jet-setting career gal, a frazzled mother of two small boys, a somewhat devoted wife, a definitely devoted friend. On the other hand, she's not quite sure ''who'' she is. Her once glam life has taken a rather mundane turn and now that the kids are off at nursery and school during the day, she's starting to notice the rather large gap that's been slowly filling her world. When a chance encounter with an ex leads to offers of fame, fortune and a fabulous new Hollywood life, she jumps at the chance to escape the ordinary and revel, for once, in the truly extraordinary.
