Louise Harrington, a divorced, thirty-something admissions officer at Columbia University's School of Fine Arts is intelligent, pretty, and successful, yet unfulfilled. That is, until a graduate school application crosses her desk and she arranges to interview the young painter. When F. Scott Feinstadt appears, he bears an uncanny resemblance to Louise's high school boyfriend and one true love, an artist who died in a car accident twenty years earlier. Within hours of the interview, Louise and Scott have embarked on a passionately uninhibited older woman/younger man affair. But is Scott just a reminder of Louise's lost love? And is Scott just trying to wheedle his way into the Ivy League? Adding to the romantic complications is competition from Louise's best friend from high school, Missy, who shows up to claim the affections of the boy; Louise's co-dependent ex-husband Peter; her cynical mother and fresh-out-of-rehab brother. 心灵阳光。 路易斯是一个三十几岁的离婚女性，她在哥伦比亚大学美术学院的人事部任职。她聪慧、美丽、事业有成，也没有再婚。有一天，她看到了办公桌上的一张毕业生应聘表，她安排了约见这名年轻的画家。在弗·斯科特·范斯坦出现在她面前时，路易斯发现他与自己学生时代的男友有着惊人的相似。路易斯的学生时代的男友在二十年前的一场车祸中意外死去，他是路易斯的真爱。在这几小时的面试中，路易斯和弗·斯科特之间迸发出了激情的火花，两人开始了浪漫的姐弟恋。然而弗·斯科特是不是路易斯曾经失去的真爱呢？而弗·斯科特是真的爱路易斯还是只是想通过她进入常春藤联盟呢？ 同时，声称也爱这个男孩的路易斯的好朋友米西，路易斯的前夫彼特和刚刚复职的弟弟萨米，他们都为这场浪漫的爱情加入了许多复杂化的因素
