Becky Dixon is getting her life back on track. She's the single mother of four-year-old twins, a successful copywriter and best friend to Issi. When her children start school, she looks forward to making new friends in the playground. Love seems to be on the horizon in the shape of Martin, or perhaps Rob - she's spoilt for choice - and her future looks rosy for the first time since her marriage to Darren ended. And then things start to go wrong. Helen - a bad penny from Becky's past - seems determined to make her life miserable in the playground; Darren decides to live nearby with his pregnant girlfriend, and worst of all, Becky's rock and confidante, Issi, receives some devastating news. It all forces Becky to make some difficult decisions.
