      Parné léto na Manhattanu by dohnalo k šílenství každého, ale Tracy Spadoliniová, čtyřiadvacetiletá žena, která do New Yorku přišla z malého města na severu státu, se ocitá v ještě horší situaci. Její přítel Will, herec, odjíždí na letní angažmá a ona zůstává ve městě sama... Během Willovy nepřítomnosti dochází Tracy k závěru, že je načase, aby ve svém životě pár věcí změnila. Má ponurý černobílý byt, práci v reklamní agentuře, která ji absolutně neuspokojuje, pár kil navíc, které ne a ne shodit, a po Willovi jako by se slehla zem. A tak na sobě s podporou svých přátel a s pomocí jednoho báječného, hezkého a velmi ochotného muže začíná pracovat. Žena, která se z ní stane, se jí líbí čím dál tím víc.
