Description: "Nisha Cantor lives the globetrotting life of the seriously wealthy, until her husband inexplicably announces a divorce and cuts her off. Nisha is determined to hang onto the life she has created for herself. But in the meantime, she must scramble to cope--she doesn't even have the shoes she was, until a moment ago, standing in. That's because Sam Kemp--at the bleakest point of her life--has accidentally taken Nisha's gym bag. But Sam hardly has time to worry about a lost gym bag--she's struggling to keep herself, her out-of-work husband, and her sarcastic teenage daughter afloat. When she tries on Nisha's six-inch high Christian Louboutin red crocodile shoes for a series of important meetings, the unexpected results give her a jolt of confidence that makes her realize something must change--and that thing is herself."--
