Jazzming David's life has been mapped out for her by her parents. She loves and adores her father, whom she wants to please, so medical school is in her future. However, when her mother dies, Jazzming meets Jay and her life is never the same. Jonathan (Jay) Dennison meets beautiful Jazzming just as he is about to begin his second year of law school.
