Lisa Munroe is a successful, single
young black attorney, branded from childhood with the nickname, "Bad
Girl." Embracing her title, she has
managed to live up to every bit of it-- At first glance, Lisa would appear to
have it all--a promising career, a committed relationship with her beau Darnel
Harvin, and the prospect of more to come. But underneath it all, the realization that
this could be a "long-term relationship," which she’d never planned,
and scares the hell out of her-- Then enters the flashy New York lawyer Mike
Wilson, whose forceful nature could destroy it all-- Like a top spinning out of
control, crashing into everyone around her--with the love of one man and the
lust of another--she finds herself backed into a corner and forced to reveal
everything. During this downward spiral,
Lisa begins to look within herself to confront some truths that could forever
change her, even shatter the lives around her--Sometimes, we have to go to the
brink of self destruction to finally come to rest at a place of happiness. But, for Lisa, is it ten minutes past too
late?
