Mark just wants a quiet life. With plenty of action at work, he has no interest in bringing the drama home with him. But he does need a roommate, and when blonde bombshell Zoe crashes onto the scene, she's more than he bargained for. Zoe is all about Communication. She hasn't had much luck with it. For example, her ex didn't communicate that he preferred cheating to being faithful. And now she's living with a man who hates talking. They're not what each other want, but one steamy night together changes everything. Over the course of 15 years, a friendship forms, one that's tested with romance, sex, and distance. Can they survive the ultimate test of time, or are polar opposites always destined to stay apart?
