Roxy actually has everything under control: her top job in Dubai, the small apartment with a view of the Burj Khalifa and her boyfriend, who ... well, at least it exists. She skillfully ignores the fact that said boyfriend has the emotional intelligence of a desert cactus. After all, she has the perfect best buddy at her side in Luke, who helps her through every business day with his quirky humor. Luke, himself successful in Dubai's hectic business life, knows Roxy better than anyone. Not only do they share a sense of biting comments about their weird colleagues, but they also share a traumatic past that they rarely talk about. The fact that he suddenly develops more than friendly feelings for her complicates things considerably. When Roxy's relationship falls apart spectacularly (who needs a friend to cheat on you?), Luke is on the spot.
